    5D mkIII has gone!

    Well my 5D has now gone what a great camera it has been and served me so well over the last 3 years, plus getting me out of some tricky lighting situations whilst covering events for the papers a real workhorse of a camera( theatre shots/large events/editorial/sports it really can handle them all with relative ease).

    I will get another Canon DSLR Camera very soon (before the weekend with a little luck).So no switching to another brand or mirrorless lol, I much prefer Canon cameras and software as they're so easy to work with.

        Hi Ian
        Sent camera and battery grip this morning so have to wait till it's been inspected until i get the Quote confirmed but it was a great offer so fingers crossed.

        As for what next it's looking like the 1Dx (can't afford the MKII)I'm now shooting 100% sport so the obvious choice for me.
        Though i will keep an eye out as to how the 5DIV performs and can easily do another exchange after 6/12 months if it really impresses which I'm sure it will.

              Due to my photographic work at the moment probably (but not definitely) a 1Dx

                      I swapped from 5DIII to 1DX about 18months ago and never felt i missed my 5DIII. Enjoy.

                            As soon as i get my quote confirmed i shall get the 1dx sorted,though looks like it will be after the weekend which may cause me a few problems shooting for the papers this week
                            Don't think my little sony a6000 will cut it not with 16-50mm zoom attached.
