SECOND-HAND CLASSIC Canon EOS 5D Mark III

When Canon unveiled the EOS 5D Mark III in 2012, it received a lot of interest from enthusiasts and working pros. Its 22.3MP resolution wasn’t a big increase over its predecessor, but it promised improved dynamic range and low-light performance. Its sensitivity range of ISO 100-25,600 (expandable to ISO 50-102,400) and 61-point AF system with 41 cross-type AF points were identical to the then-flagship EOS-1D X. Other features include 6fps shooting, a reliable 63-zone metering system, fixed 3.2in 1.04k-dot screen and an optical viewfinder with 0.71x magnification and 100% coverage. Full HD video (30p) and dual card slots (CF & SD) are supported too.
