Re: A new type of Camera Color Comparison

What's your overall impression of the 5DIII compared to the 5DII? From what I've read auto focus is deadly accurate but image quality is only touch better.

I've been waiting a little bit as I am not sure if Adobe is going to make adjustments on how the 5D III is processed.  It seems to do a pretty good job especially now there is native LR support.

Further color changes seem unlikely at this point, particularly considering how similar it is to the 5D Mk ll at this point. So I figure its time to start using the calibration I generated for everything I shoot with the new body, now that I have a reasonable import path for the images.
