Did you get the Mark III or Mark II?

We're talking about a $1000 price difference here! I got the Mark II.
It was actually an easy purchase to make after flipping the 7D.

I'll get the Mark III when the Mark IV comes out

I have been debating the upgrade from my 7D to the 5D Mk III. I cannot yet rationalize a 3,000 dollar purchase. I am working on it though, so don't worry.

That was my issue, too. I could do a lot with that money.
Stay tuned for an update of what I think of my switch so far.

It makes one hell of a vignette on a full frame body!
Hmmm... What to do with a nice fast lens that's only two weeks old? (cough-buyitblackcherry20-cough)

I pulled all my HVAC grates out for the contractor to sandblast & paint (they're old heavy-duty steel ones and they're a little crusty) and they've got my hallway painted, a little more tile done in the bathroom and they finished out the trim around the new glass block window.

The dust and mess is annoying me and I'm ready for it to be done... Hopefully end of this week they'll be getting close.

yay! pics then?!

I'm looking forward to your thoughts. I'm sure you won't regret the upgrade. New tech tools are fun

Myself, I have a hard time justifying the cost of going full frame when I've been published (several times) with less. Also a few of my professional photographer friends don't even use full frame and they make their living doing this.

Having said that, if I knew without a doubt that I could make more money by upgrading, I would.
