The Canon 5D Mark iii changed my life. Is there a camera that has changed yours?
The 5D Mark II was my main jam - totally nuts what the jump was from the 5D to the Mark II was!
Still have my Mark III. Have the GFX 50S II now but for some reason haven't been able to let go of the 5D. Ergonomics are just perfect to me. The thing feels unbreakable.
@@glenis83 it can definitely be used as a first line of defense
Also the 5D Mark III, my first and current full frame camera and I'm using it for all my work! I mostly use it with the Sigma 35mm f/1.4, legendary combo!
@@glenis83It indeed is a tank, mine's running on it's original shutter with more than 500k actuations.
Man, your photographs look amazing. Very unique composition and beautiful editing!
I‘ve just downgraded from an R6 II to the 5D III. Might sound crazy but I was never really happy with the files I got from the R6. I have owned the 5D III years ago, it was my first professional full frame camera and started my career. A few weeks ago I felt nostalgic and started to play around with a few old photos from that time. And wow was I surprised how easy it was to get a great look out of them. The files from the 5D have a creamy, silky quality to them that I absolutely love. I currently don’t need the bells and whistles that the R6 offers so I pulled the trigger on a used 5D III in mint condition for 500 bucks, shot counter is at just under 20k. I will never ever sell that camera again.
Wow what a great deal! They really cannot be beat! Great job, wouldn’t call it a downgrade: thanks for sharing!
Ive been a professional portrait photographer for 10 years this year. I got my first 5d3 in February of 2014, has 400k+ on it now, for $3000. I just picked up another one with 69k on it for $350! I also got a 1dm2 for $185 as well. I love them so much!
Great! Which lens its your faver?
Never been a professional but I do make money as a side gig since 4-5 years and I still use two 5d3s , they are as good now as when they camd out . Sigma 60 art and the 70-200 2.8 is ii are on my cameras 90 procent of the time
Nothing like SLRs or DSLRs for that matter.
I proudly own three iterations of the legendary Canon 5D series, the Classic, 5DII and 5DIII.
The Classic is special for close to film-look images. They are beautiful straight out of the camera.
The 5DII is another legend. I love its image quality. If I have to take a single camera for everything to a distant place; it’s going to be 5DII.
Now, on 5DIII. This has been gifted to me recently by my son. It clicked more than 215k shutter actuations however; I expect it to exceed 500k shots based on what I’m observing on the net about 5DII. The 5DIII has taught me the definition of a real all-rounder DSLR. It’s great for landscape, portraiture and wildlife photography as well. Just three days ago I discovered its built-in HDR option too which has brought additional joy for me. Undoubtedly, this is one of Canon’s best outputs for many years.
BTW, as a hobbyist photographer, I love shooting only with real cameras - not with the smartphone updates.
Thank you for the video. Fantastic images, loved those.
The classic is awesome!
I miss mine
A digital camera with the soul of film.
Only downfall … LIGHT. HOG.
OMG. This was hard to watch. I sold my 5D3 in 2019, and I’ve always regretted it. I bought it when they came out in 2012, and as others have commented, it just felt right. I sold it because I wasn’t using it much. Rookie error. Now I’m not working 50-70 hours a week, I want it back.
I had a 5Diii from like 2014-2020 and ever since then I’ve basically switched to a different camera once a year and nothing has felt right. Nothing has felt as intuitive and natural to use as the 5Diii, that thing just felt like an extension of my body. Everything I’ve used since (EOS RP, EOS R, and R6) has required too much looking, checking, thinking, instead of just feeling. Like something as simple as the lock switch- on the 5Diii I can feel the lock switch without looking and know if I’m locked but I can’t do that with the R or R6. The buttons on top of the modern bodies are just dropped at random all over the place, I still need to stop and look down to know whether I’m about to hit record or lock- the older bodies with their top buttons in a straight row took like two afternoons to feel familiar. Long story short, I think I’m going back to the 5Diii.
Ya know, this all makes too much sense to me. I think that I learned so much using that camera and new cameras are just kind of all the same, no soul.
i still have mine,my 10 year old buddy,still bring happiness to me
@@acheron0508 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
That combo wombo of the 35 sigma and the 5d mark iii will go down in history as one of the best of all time
100% agree with that, right next to the OG Leica Q.
Sooo interested in lens choice- you like Sigma’s 35 better than canon? Gotta look into that!
I have two 5D Markiii's. The first one I bought bout 12 years ago factory fresh and the second one about 7 years ago, also factory fresh as I was afraid that the first one would fail while far away from home during expeditions. But both camera's work very well till now. Using them much outside in heavy circomstances (rain, cold, humid warmth, dust, you name it). I use them exclusive with the weather-sealed L-lenses (70-300, 100-400 mkII and 24-70 2.8). They have never ever failed on me. They are like rigid tanks. The robust body protects the electronics inside. Also the battery-life is very good (important in my kind of photography). Thank you for this video, it will prevent me from buying other gear for a long time to go. When one of the rigs brakes I wil buy a "new second hand" one ;-)
I sold my Canon R6 for an second hand 5D III because of the Color and haptic. I think the Raws are getting flatter and flatter also because of the Dual Pixel and PDFA / Phase detection technology
Some would call you crazy but I agree. I’ve shot on the new canons and they do have nice color science but it does seem a bit flatter when it hits software. That would be a good video imo. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I have fully kitted sony, nikon, and canon mirrorless systems and can tell you with 100% certainty that general rendering has been fundamentally altered by mirrorless sensor technology.
@@hunterhart1i am buying 5d Mark 4
I went from a Rebel to D750 to an R5 and an R. Not having ever used a 5D camera, I’ve considered trading my R for a 5D III or IV. Or going back to Nikon DSLRs. Part of me feels uninspired in the mirrorless realm.
I have a R6 and I'm giving thought to selling and getting a mark III for the ML RAW video. The dynamic range and colour just look great. Compared to the R6.
Probably the most beautiful 5D ever made at the time and still very complete today despite the mirrorless world.
I still work on it today with a classic 1DX and am the happiest man alive.
👏🏼👏🏼 very nice, thanks for watching
Having just picked up the 5Dc and the 5Dii, I'm utterly blown away by the image quality of these older systems. The 5Dc in particular is a camera I needed, but never knew I did. Been a mirrorless shooter from the beginning, and was getting increasingly frustrated with all the extra bloatware on camera bodies now.... they're more and more like using computers, and the 5Dc and 5Dii have been an absolute breathe of fresh air. No bells, no whistles.... just straightforward usability delivering stellar image quality, for pocket money change. People forget that something like the 5Dii was a flagship camera upon it's release, what made it great then still makes it great now. I picked one up for one hundred quid! This camera was 2.5k when released! Crazy. Love the colours, hardly have to edit any of the images.
You said it well, people do forget they were flagship cameras. We get bombarded so often by megapixels and fps, we try “keeping up”with everyone
I just made the decision earlier on today to buy myself a 5D mkiii after years of not owning a camera. I used to have an 80D which I used for a lot of things, portraiture, nightlife, product photography etc. and have felt myself slowly going MAD for not having the same creative outlet I used to. This video and seeing your images has given me so much hope already my brain is like on rapid fire ideas that I KNOW I can execute hehe. SO EXCITED
Congrats! I’m super excited for you and glad the video could help inspire just a bit. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Thanks for your description of the 5D Mk lll and its capabilities. I own one and happy for all its qualities and capabilities. It is truly a keeper of a camera.
Nice work. I’m glad people are still talking about the 5D series, they really are amazing cameras. I regret selling my 5D mk ii, that camera had magic for me.
Love the look of your work, the behind the scenes is excellent. Great video.
Hey man, thanks so much for your kind words. The 5D is such an amazing camera, if people could get off of specs they’d understand that this is more than enough for a photographer in 23.
Totally agree on this video..I purchased this camera back in 2012 I believe and the reason I chose this one was because at the time the OG Black magic 2.5 K was in back ordered..till this day I still have this camera and used it up until 2022 for my wedding videography..it has made me over 100k $ since and will be dedicating an episode to beginner filmmakers who want an affordable option with amazing image quality..let me not get into the vast amount of lenses available! This camera is a gem as well as the 5DMK2. This is a camera I will never part with..! Great episode!
That’s amazing. Subbing now!
Thank you! Enjoy the unique style and flavor I give to my message..hope you enjoy my talks..will be putting out a 5D talk video next week!
Great job! This camera is the bomb. It’s takes you back to the roots of photography. Also my first favorite camera! They can take a beating.
Solid video man. Nice shots!
Thanks man, definitely helped us get to where we are 🤙🏼
That was such a inspirational video. Looking forward to seeing more.
Thank you so much
What a fantastic video. Thank you Hunter and Sarah. The camera that meant the most to me was a Ricoh GR film camera that I used for a number of years 20+ years ago. It had a 28mm lens and just made the most amazing colours when paired with Fuji Velvia. I once took a lovely shot of lightening in the alps with it. The photo is still on my wall and makes me smile every time that I look at it. All the very best and regards from the UK. Simon
That’s amazing do you have the photo on a website maybe??
I have a 2nd hand 5diii and using it for a year and half. Eventhough my main camera now is the EOS R. I still love the sound of my 5dm3.
i love the crisp of the image that it can produce. Most of the comments are right. Mirrorless cameras are flatter than 5dm3.
FYI, the shutter of the 5dm3 was replaced before I got it. The SC is around 999K plus.
😅 that’s a ton of images, if I had to guess mine is wayyyy up there. I should have actually put how many actuations I had in the video to further prove how this camera stands the test of time. Thanks so much for watching.
I bought a 5D MKIII last year with 12,000 shutter clicks, and it's my main camera. I routinely shoot 2,000 photographs in a weekend, and it is an amazing workhorse! It recently got completely drenched from a spending an hour in the rain while on a shoot, and I mean totally soaked! The camera stopped working, so I put it in my car for the day to dry out, and by the evening, it started working again. It had the 24-105 lens on it when it got wet, so I just mounted that lens on another camera and it worked great for the rest of the day. Canon makes some great stuff!
Thanks for posting!
Those are some really great photos you showed. Great job!
Hey man, thanks so much for that. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment on the video.
I really like your work! I’m just buying a used 5D mk3 that comes with the kit 24-105 f4. I always wanted one, but the 7D was better for my budget at the time. I’ve been super happy with the 7D mk1 for the past 14 years, but the 5D will be a really nice pairing with it for landscapes and videography…without breaking the bank. It’s so important to not spend everything on the camera and get the proper lenses for whatever your subject needs are. Used equipment is a great way to make it all come together and stay in a reasonable budget.
Amen! Hope you enjoy the 5D, I’d say it’s a nice upgrade from the 7D
Excellent video Hunter! If it weren’t for video, I’d pick this up for sure. Amazing work!
Thanks man!
Okay, well. That's it. Yes, I'm going to buy a 5d mark iii again. Switched from Sony A7 iv etc to Fuji last year and been looking for a canon.
Now looking back at my old pictures with the 5D Mark III and 6D... damn I need it again.
This video just made the decision for me. Thanks!
I just got a 5d mk iii last week! Excited to start using it. Just gotta save up for a better lens for it. Great video!
Hope you’re enjoying it! Thanks for watching
Thanks for the video. Spot on.
The perfect camera is the one you have in your hand. On Canon 5D Mark III; it's an all-rounder camera indeed. I'm a hobbyist and got this camera as a gift from my son. He used it extensively for wedding photography for four years. A year ago he concentrated on film-making and gave up still photography. It clicked more 200k actuations but, I expect it to exceed 500k clicks.
I use it for landscape, street-life and wildlife photography. I do own other time-tested pro bodies like 5DII and 1DIV which are excellent. But 5DIII is able to do everything. I love it.
Not into videos so, couldn't care less about it. Mirrorless camera is something that never impressed me. It's not superior to DSLRs rather in many areas it's inferior.
Thanks again.
Thanks for telling your 5D story and thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I shot Canon for years with the 5D series, loved my experiences with it. A few years ago I jumped over to Fujifilm and loved it, but as time went on I felt that draw back to Canon with their new EOS line of mirrorless bodies, I finally picked up a RP with an adaptor so I can use that 35 1.4 I had still, I guess knowing full well I would come back 😊. Last week I traded a xpro2 and a 56 1.2 lens for a 5DIII and a 50 1.2 straight up, the second I held it in my hand ……it just felt right. Thanks for saying what I have been thinking brother
No place like home man. It’s all about what feels good to you man. Thanks so much for watching and for the sub 🙏🏼
I’ve been shooting with the 5d mark 3 and it’s a beast of a camera I have to start documenting for of my shoots to be honest but I really enjoyed this video wanna get back into more mature shoots and couples shooting thank you man you just gained a new subscriber 💯
So glad to hear that I could give you a little inspiration, thanks for subbing to the channel. Hope your next shoots go well.
I am blown away by your images! Timeless and classic. Great work. Oh and by the way the 5d series is my all time favourite of all the cameras I’ve used.
The 5D is such a tank. Thanks for watching and for your compliment 🙏🏼
My husband and I use the 5D mark III till this day! I love it ❤
Timeless camera
great video! you can feel the passion in your words. very inspiring!
I would like to get back into photography and today I ordered a used 5d m3. plus the 18-35 2.8 II.
your video helped me with my decision. Many thanks and greetings from Germany.
Thanks so much for watching, glad I could be inspiring! Can’t wait to hear how the camera works out for ya.
@@hunterhart1 many thanks for your effort!
I will definitely report 👍🏻
Been shooting the 5Dseries for 15 years now. 5D2, 5D4, and now 5DsR
I still to this day love the files from the 5D2 specially in natural light. The 5DsR is the camera I grab for most work as I really like the files from that also.
Tempted to pick up a 5D Classic also.
Great photos! You are pro!
Thank you so much!
I'm really happy to see your video, today I just bought a used 5D mark III camera, the item I got can still be said to be very good because the Shutter Count is still at 10 thousand. I hope that by increasing my gear I will also increase my fortune. Greetings Photographer
Hot take: The Canon 5D mkIII produces better images than the R5. I owned 2 5D3s and I sold them to buy 2 R5s. I have since sold one of the R5s and bought back a 5D3. It's slower, it has worse ISO performance, worse dynamic range, produces smaller images, bigger, heavier, worse focusing system… but it produces nicer looking images. And image quality is more important than all those other things put together. Hell, I was even shooting professional jobs with a 12MP 5D classic until a few years ago. That produces even nicer images with its CCD sensor (in good light. ISO 1600 is the max and it's grainy as hell).
Dude, tbh I didn’t want to say that but I feel the same way about the image quality I swear!
Deployed to Iraq with the 5DmkII
Made history with that camera!
After multiple publications, I came home and bought a 5D OG and was blown away by the images it produced.
It’s Digital Camera with the soul of film.
Now, I own a 2nd hand mkIII and I’m pretty impressed at the improvements from the mkII.
The OG 5D has enough limitations to feed the creativity.
Great video! Very inspiring.
Curious as to the ballpark range of how much a similar shoot would cost?
You have a dope eye!
how is the OG 5d better than 5d3? better color? better autofocus?
@@malayneum
Well,
if you’re familiar with film, the grain it produces is similar. I’d like to think it’s due to the ISO and sensor.
The color renditions are beautifully unique to the 5D series.
And, personally for me, it produces a certain level of limitations that exercise my creativity.
Lastly,
On the 5D mkIII, while I like it’s capabilities, it’s sterile and produces clean imagery.
But too clean for certain scenarios.
One of my first cameras was a Mamiya ZE & Nikon D300s. I’ve always shot digital and film/film-esque cameras simultaneously.
Here’s a simpler parallel;
Grain for film cameras is like THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) for analog gear in music production.
They produce character that the digital doesn’t have but often tries to emulate.
Nice shots!😍
Thanks so much
just traded all my sony a6300 stuff for a 5D mark III and a 25-105 L lens! all of my favorite youtube videos from the 5D mark III's era from devinsupertramp and other creators during that time, it truly is a legendary camera and hope i enjoy the camera. Great video Hunter!
I’m sure you will enjoy it!
Canon T2i started it all for me...just using a DSLR for video was amazing on it's own
Great video and stunning images
I've realised how much spraying and praying i do and think mirrorless cameras are part of that. I'm gonna test out a canon 6d after hearing how good the colours are!
Let me know how it goes, optical viewfinders are nice too.
Since I got my R6 with rf lens a few years ago, I use my 5D mark iii less before. There are some color difference between older sensor and new sensor. I feel like 5D sensor is easier to get more color back after editing, and R6 sometimes freezes more in “red, pink, orange” color science. Of course R6 has the lighter body, the autofocus and IBS makes much higher rate to get sharpness img even with old lens, and faster shuttle speed. But I always bring my 5D iii as a back up camera when ever I need it.
So first of all, the portrait of the man at 3:45 min, his jacket matching the colors of the house in the back, the brightness of the image, the slightly out of focus background, man that is Steve McCurry material, really incredible photo. As well as the rest of your photos hands down amazing. Maybe you could do a video where you tell us the story of the man, how you took the image as well as the editing process. That would make an incredible video I guess. You have a new subscriber, thanks!
Ayyy thanks so much for being the only person who spoke about that images seeing how it was sheer luck that he was marching the building. I was on a medical mission trip in Honduras at a camp where we were facilitating all of the medical supplies for a small poverty stricken village with no healthcare system. It was the right time of day and just a perfect moment in time to be honest with you. I really appreciate your sub and I’ll try to work on more story content like you suggest, thanks again!
Your experience and creativity is amazing! Kudos to you. Your shots are so good, the angles. Lovely work. I am a sony A7 shooter. It just goes to show that composition beats any equipment. Nice work.
I use sony as well, they produce great images but in my opinion there is something a lot more special about DSLRs. Anyway, thank you so much for watching and thanks for your compliment.
Fantastic photography!
Thank you very much!
Great video
I Work with a R6 and a R6 Mark II
But it's when I Shoot with my 5dIII that I feel the pleasure.
It is a nice experience on both sides! Thanks for watching.
I started with a Sears camera. Snap shooting. Worked up to a Canon A1 film camera. Sold some pictures. But I not used to the digital cameras yet. I have to get back into it though. I loved doing landscape photography. The one mistake I would say I did was doing a wedding. I was asked by the bride's Mother to do it. Some pictures were great. One which I used the Mother's old Volkswagen Beetles door to frame the bride was fantastic. Made the bride's Mother cry.
Top photography sir love it
Thank you very much!
Respect.
Your pics shown in the video speaks highly of your skills and your creative angle. I hope I could be this good, one day.
Thanks so much!! Follow me over on Instagram!
What's so special about this cameras, is that it is an amazing video cameras as well. With the installation of magic lantern you can record Full Frame 14-bit RAW Internally! And the file sizes are very small compared to most of the 4k and 6k raw cameras
Good point, I actually did this with this camera back in the day but didn’t really use it to its full potential so I stopped using it. Definitely a good video camera if you know how to use it properly
Magic latern is installable in the 5d mark III?
@@troglodidio yes of course!
@@troglodidio it is
So true
Great video and excellent photos, Hunter. Your customers are lucky! I do photo tours in Vietnam with my trusty 5D3, but it's starting to take a bit of a beating recently. And I struggle a bit to handle very high contrasts compared with more recent cameras. I'm considering buying a 5D4 with two more stops, and I'm curious whether the colours in the RAW files are as good or flat. Have you tested the difference between these cameras (D53 vs 5D4)?
I understand your frustration with the contrast detection system. In my opinion it’s hard to tell the difference from the images it produces compared with the 5DMarkiii. I think you’d find the new AF system to suit you well.
I bought a 5D3 about 6weeks ago & I love it ❤️. They were always too expensive, but just lately used 5D3 prices have dropped a lot here in the U.K. Great portrait camera for a real bargain price.
Agreed! Glad to hear it
Yessssss.
Superb video! 😍 got 5Dmkiii for myself as well and installed magiclantern firmware. Liking the results from this beast. 🔥
With "Danne's crop_rec_4k, 5DIII" build in its anamorphic mode, you can make 4K Raw video with incredible quality.
I am only 3 minutes in the Video and i'm blown away by the images that you created ! Just WOW...
Thank you so much, hope ya got through the whole thing
The older Canon 5D’s and 6D mark 1 are definitely great cameras. I have both the 5D Classic and Canon 6D Mark 1 and think the colours and rendering from these cameras is awesome. Coming from Fuji APSC, which I like too for colours and image quality, there is something special about Canon FF that’s for sure.
I have debated updating my camera body as I’ve shot with a mark iii since 2018. As much as I want to go mirror less, I haven’t been convinced as I will either have to break the bank to get the R5 or buy something that either has the same or less megapixels than my mark iii. Thank you for sharing this. It validates my hesitance to purchase a new body and I’ll continue to invest in my glass. The glass is really where it’s at, IMO. 📷
I think the R5 and R6 are incredible cameras if you haven’t used either one you should definitely rent one or the other. For me, the 5D taught me how to photograph in a way that carried over into mirrorless cameras so I don’t really use a lot of the technology advancements in the mirrorless cameras tbh. It’s not about the camera anyway, it’s about what ya do with it. Keep on keepin on 🤙🏼 thanks for watching
@@hunterhart1 thank you for the insight! I haven’t used them. I’ve admired the photos my friends produce. I will look into renting one. Appreciate the advice! And agreed, it’s about what you do with it! ✨
i like maybe 50% of all photos you showed, but i totally love the way you tell this video, very good. the reason why am here is because i want to choose my first camera)
50% is pretty good I’d say, I like about 6% of them! Thanks for watching!
Not exactly the same, but the same principle... I use several modern mirrorless cameras with the latest tech, but when ever I look through my old hard drives from when I was using my 2008 Nikon D700, a 12mp full frame camera that on-paper has been surpassed many times over, I wonder why I kept buying newer and newer gear.
The images from that old camera can stand head to head with anything my newer gear can deliver, as long as you are shooting to have images, not a collection of pixels to zoom in on.
My D700, now 15 years old still functions perfectly and I'll never sell it.
May not be exactly the same but the exact same concept. Glad you feel the same way. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment! The Nikon D700 is a beast, used one only a few times but it was nice to work with.
The D700 and D3 are the ones that offered the best low light performance thanks to the 12MP on an FF sensor (larger cells in the sensor that captured light better).
Started on a 5d mk1, went up to Sony a7’s for a while, picked up a gh5 and g85 for a short time and realised I didn’t like the images any where nearly as before, nothing went up on my wall anymore. Now iv got a 5d mk1, mk2 and mk3 🤷♂️ they’re old but take such nice images, I can’t explain why they’re nicer but hey 🤷♂️.
thanks for this video. It was very inspirational to me. Especially when you talk about the fact that current cameras make you lose sight of creativity. You're always looking at what the OVF marks for you in there. What lenses did you use besides the Sigma 35mm f1.4? Thank you !!!
Hey! Thanks for watching. All photos in this video were taken with the 35mm sigma. I owned the 50mm sigma and the 85mm 1.2 canon but I just wanted to showcase how one lens and one body can do just as good if you know how to use it.
@@hunterhart1 ty !!!
Some great shots there - like your style ... I still shoot with a 5d3 and use a fuji system (xt2) for lightweight carry round .. Just curious what lens you were using .. Regards from UK
Thanks so much. 35mm sigma
Your words are really true my friend :) Hugs
🙏🏼🤙🏼
Great video, would you happen to know if there is a way to set up the viewfinder that there is >>ONLY BLACK
Sorry, I don’t understand the question. It’s an optical viewfinder so all you see is what the lens sees in real time rather than an EVF. Could you expand on the question?
5Diii for life 💪🏻
ayyyy thanks for watching
Getting my 5DmkIII this week. I love my 7DmkII but ive wanted the 5DmkIII to be my starter FF ❤
You’re going to love it, I promise!
hie l want to askabout 7dmkii why isit more photographers use it only sport and wildlife no weddings or events coz i wanted 7dmkii shooting portraits and wedding photoshoot is it good camera for events witch one is good 5dmkiii and 7dmkii
@@user-uw8qh9gw6t the 7D has a cropped sensor in it so it adds extra reach to your zoom lens and it’s also cheaper because of that exact reason. The 5D has a full frame which gives you the correct field of view for the lenses you purchase, it lets in more light so it works better in low light + blurrier background and better dynamic range.
@user-uw8qh9gw6t They are both amazing in their own way, however the 7dMkII is a crop sensor camera. It does have exceptionally fast focus and focus tracking which is why I had it, for sports and animals.
However now that I've had time to play with my 5DmkIII, it is hands down better at portraiture.
Of course it's not the camera that makes the photographer, but if you are choosing between these two and portraiture is what you want to do, go with the full frame.
I have Camera Rental House and people still calling for 5DMIII..i also offer it to customers with low budget and they are always happy with the results
I bought a used 5D3 a few years ago because it was the highest-recommended camera for stop motion by Dragon Frame. The colour technology was praised, and they also recommended pairing it with Nikon glass for the best images. I've under utilised it since then, but when I do use it I love it.
I'm working on getting Magic Lantern for it to use as a B camera for filming RAW footage. My GAS intention is to buy a used c500 Mk1 for 4K RAW capture and for higher (stable) framerates.
Ahhh nice, I actually had Magic Lantern installed on this camera for a while but I didn’t use it very often so ended up resetting it to manufacture settings. I know that it opens up a new world of possibilities that I just wasn’t creative enough to use! Thanks for watching and taking the time to tell us about your experience 🤙🏼
@@hunterhart1 No problem! Thank you for the video 😁👍
I have combined the 5DIII with Carl Zeiss Classic (25/2.8, 35/2, 50/1.4, 85/1.4) ZF.2 Industrial Edition, to make Stop Motion. These optics allow the diaphragm and focus to be fixed with screws.
Magic lantern give these marvelous cameras a whole new life too. All the way from 5.7k RAW in short clips to the CF, or 1080p 14bit lossless to an overclocked SD card.
Combine that with the lovely lenses all the way from the nifty fifty to the 70-200 2.8L, or more artsy lenses like a vintage jupiter 37a MC with EF mount in my case, those videos have a "soul" a lot of modern cameras feel lacking imo.
beautiful pictures, that is true syndrome of new gear such wrong mindset, there is no end for new gizmos, like your photos
Did you use the sigma 35 for all these shots? They are fantastic!
Yes I did! Thanks so much 🙏🏼
Awesome video and really nice pictures!
I’m looking for my first full frame but don’t know what to pick. I want one of the older ones. Would you say that the 5d3 is a better pick than the 5d2 or 6d or may the newer 6d2?
I’d say the 5Diii is the winner in all of them. I think anyone who has used all of them would attest to that as well.
@@hunterhart1 I like watching Martin Castein, a wedding photographer and his view on photography. He’s a “back to basics” guy and he loves those old 5d and 6d because of the color palette you can’t find in the modern cameras. His favorite camera is the 5d mark 1 with its creamy colors and his 2nd most favorite is the 5d mark 2 or the 6d mark 1 because of their color palette or scheme. The 5d mark 2 has a earthy tone and the 6d very similar to the 5d classic. I’m a beginner so I really appreciate your opinion!
Thanks for responding and have a nice weekend!
@@brunodrakenas9575 I think it’s more so better low light performance, faster af and reliability. The colors from the canon 5Diii are my favorites but it’s all subjective. You’ll be happy with any of them
Never having used a 5D series, how do you feel the image out the 5DMkiii compares to the image out of the Leica SL?
I haven’t done a side by side comparison, I’m sure the SL handles low light better and dynamic range but as of now you probably couldn’t tell a difference just looking at a standard image.
You are correct it reminds me of when Fuji entered the market with the Fuji S5, somewhere like 2005 the Body was like $1,500.00 and they took Nikon lenses there zoom lenses worked, but the Zoom lens was a total failure as it didn't have zoom creep it was Zoom using jet fuel and Nikon refused to repair it, it was made in Thailand maybe that was a problem?
I just ordered one, it has 160,000 on the shutter but I noticed some had over 600,000 on the count. The 5D Mark iii is an upgrade to my T7 body, I spent all my money on the 150-600mm Sigma C lens so my leftover budget was $400 MAX on a better body. 📸 🐿️
Niceeee they last forever man
Dude. So awesome. You could take better portraits with crayons than 99% of the people out there can with a Nikon Z9. You rock, and the message is fantastic!
HAHAHA Crayons, next video challenge? Thanks man, I really appreciate that, I hope this video helps shed some light. Thanks again.
Mas lebih wort it mana 5d mk lll or 6d mk ll
I dont easily get influenced but you just did, thanks
That means a lot 🥹 thanks so much for watching
I LOVE MY MKiii. I’m not pro I’m just a hobbyist. But damn, she’s my baby ❤
I love my daily driver, 5dmk3
I bought a used 5d mk 3 a few weeks ago after weeks and weeks (months) of deliberation. I used to do a lot of photography - I had a 300D when it first came out and I absolutely adored it - even got some of my work published in the papers. Then after about 10 years it started breaking down so I got a 60D. I never enjoyed using that camera and with more and more people taking photos with phones I gave up. I always wanted a 5D but could never afford it so as I approached 40 I thought that I'd give it another go. So far I'm very rusty and all my photos suck but I can definitely feel the difference to my 60D. It's faster, feels more solid. I hope that I can get back into it and take some great photos like yours.
I actually had the 60D as well, the 5D in my opinion blows it out of the water. Glad ya found something you like and best of luck to ya!! I’m sure you’re doing great!
I got one Mark III a few weeks ago. Looks like new. Works well. The owner told me it has 13000 actuation in it. I try to check it but none of the shutter count works.
It could be 1million and still work just fine, they’re meant to outlast the world if you don’t toss it off of too many cliffs
bought it new. has been a workhorse, dependable accurate clean. love it. technology isn't always for the best..sometimes technology takes the 'HUMANESS out of photography.. coming from film, digital is fabulous...but I like that hands on control, not relying on gimmicks and "I'll fix it" in Lightroom..understand light. Let her be your teacher. Wait for her. She is worth it,
Đồng quan điểm, tôi cũng đang dùng 5D3 và cảm thấy hài lòng
Nice.
Thanks!
I admit to a gos problem. But so far, I think that I have not yet spent enough to have bought a top range camera and lens.
I have one 5D Mk3 and can't get rid of it haha. Do you mind if I ask you what camera and lens you used to record you talking?
A7iii 24-70 2.8 gmaster , would prefer the sigma 24-70
Sold my 5D mark iii for a cinema camera (BMCC6K). I regret selling it. I don’t regret the purchase. I’ve tested the Sony a7iii the canon eos 6D. Nothing has felt the same since I sold it. I’m gonna buy a used one on eBay
My gas would be over if they ever made an EOS RF camera like the M6II, but this time with some lenses. Extra points if they do it full frame. And I'm talking flip up and over selfie screen, detatchable EVF, the whole deal. The closest I've come to it was the X-E4 but they're out of stock, and all the Sony models flip out to the side like the Z30 which is just terrible for my use case.
The 5DIII is the closest look to digital film for a pure photographer with get out of gail video 1080p. Used it globally with L 24-70MM f2.8 and L 70-200MM F2.8, no director or image desk has ever asked me to shoot prime. The menu's are so simple and the RAW files I have enlarged to 14ft x 30ft on wallpaper for Marriott and many other blue chip companies. The 5DIV felt more of a 4K limited video body that also did stills. I had one for 12 months then went back to 5Ds and 5DsR for magazine and studio shoots. The EOS R is my walkabout and gimble body usually with RF 35mm and the R5 is the beast unleashed from Canon, does what I need so well in stills and video for magazine and compliments the C300MII for TV although my wish list is R5 C and C300 MK III. On video for commercial or TV i always output EOS R, R5, C300 MKII to ATOMOS ProRes recorders and set the white balance to K 3600 OR K 5600. Brings the Canon sensors closer in post using the ProRes HQ. Nice video and I always have time for the Canon 5D III as it made me feel complete as a photographer, ready to shoot anything.
Thanks for your story, the R5 is honestly so good (I wish they allowed sigma glass for RF) something about the feeling of the 5D body just feels so indestructible and I love that. The R5 feels sturdy for a mirrorless but nothing will ever beat the 5D series or the 1DX as far as a tank feel. I made a video about the X100VI and why you don’t need it because of the megapixel bump. People get off to megapixels when in reality, billboards have been printed with just a few megapixels far before sensors crammed so much in. Bottom line is that if the camera feels good, works well and inspires you then it’s doing a good job.
I'd have to say the closest thing to digital film by far are fujifilm mirrorless cameras
@@MinaAlex2407 I’d say the xpro series using the optical viewfinder, yea because of the button layout
@@MinaAlex2407 I do know one photographer that swears by it, along with his Nikon but I think there are some shared features across the two. I did try Nikin D3 but I stayed with Canon.
i got mark 3 with ~400K shutter count, it still rocks like new, my viewfinder AF isnt working but works in Live view mode, can you give me some tips for better focusing in live view mode? great video btw,
I wish I could give you some tips on that but I don’t have any. I hate how slow it is on live mode, makes no sense. Thanks for watching!
@@hunterhart1 yep its very annoying :((, but i dont want to sell it, color sciene is amazing on this camera
If by any chance you see this, i have a 5D mkiii, and for some reason i can never color grade the images the way i want to (i used a 6d mkii for a short period and found i didnt have this problem). I think it has something to do with the fact that the 6d mkii shoots CR3 files instead of the CR2 files that the 5d iii shoots. I can just never get the images to look quite how i want them too, is this something that buying lightroom would help (currently using Darktable), or is this entirely user error.
I’m not really sure, I haven’t had an issue with those files personally and I’ve used both the R5 and R6 and they’re worked fine.
I have had this camera for almost 2 years and I have a love hate/relationship with it. What lenses did you use in the wedding photographs?
I used the 35mm sigma 90% and the 50mm sigma
Hey i may be asking for a lot but what type of settings you have for the 5d Mark iii
I shoot manual everything including manual white balance + RAW
@@hunterhart1thank you !!!
i want to buy 7dmkii for photo shoot and wedding photography any help
A 7Dmkii is a great camera, just watch out for the crop sensor as a 35mm would equate to a 50mm lens. Whatever your lens is multiply it by 1.5 so you'll get a rough estimate. 13x1.5=19.5mm
Wow yeah, I use a Canon T3i, Looks like a change is coming for me
That was actually my first camera with
Manual settings, taught me enough to hop right into the 5D! Thanks for watching
Yeah I have learned a lit with the t3i, but I gotta go to the next step
@@hunterhart1
Which lens did you use in the shooting session?
The 35mm sigma 1.4
Hi, can you help me please? I bought my first camera (Fujix-s10) at beggining of the year. No i get an opportunits to buys a 5Dmark 3 for 450$ with 120k expo. What do you suggest? Thank you in advance
What’s up? Do you have a lens that you can purchase as well? If the cameras in good condition 120k is nothing
