Canon released the most drooled after camera this year

For those interested, Canon released one of the most anticipated, drooled after cameras this year: Canon 5D Mark III
On paper, it addresses the issues with the previous model:
- Higher ISO sensitivity (Great for clubs, indoor venues!)
- Multi focus points (finally! Great for focusing on things off centre)
- Dual card support (ever ran out of memory before???)
- Optional GPS support (woohoo Geo tagging!)
- In camera HDR (jury is still out on this one)
- etc, etc, etc…
Is it worth getting…probably not. It’s not that it’s a bad camera but over the previous model, there aren’t any real innovations here apart from HDR support in camera and high ISO. For every other new feature announced else there’s a ‘workaround’ in the previous model.
Disappointed…a little, but it means that we won’t have to fork out a lot of $$$ (US$3500 or £2999!!!) for a while (but any generous person reading this is more than welcome to get me one 😉 )
