i wasnt prepared to see vintage Matthew with hair

[adriannasyraf]

your "old" camera is my future upcoming camera

[OpenDGuitar]

We wore out two 5Dii cams with video work, and our 5Diii is still a workhorse for photos and video projects. We have had it 12 years and it is stellar. So yeah…in 2024, it is still remarkable.

I just bought my 2nd 5D MKII last month. These older 5D cameras take amazing photos!

[LlocQ]

The one camera I will never sell!!!
I just love my 5D mkiii never failed me I love the pictures out of this thing more than any other Canon camera!
Had a 5Dmkiv an R and currently using R6 and R5 for work but nothing can top my mkiii I bought a second one this year just to have a back up... The only camera I bought twice!!

This is my current camera it is simply phenomenal.

[severinkwazniak]

One of my favorite cameras. The colors in this model and the perfect amount of pixels in the sensor, in my opinion, make the photos always look nice straight out from the camera.

[picbygiz]

I love 5diii, it was the one that made me grow in the hobby. I will never sell “him”. ❤

[ActualCounterfactual]

Its now 2024 and I think my 5D MK2 still rocks the boat. Its my permanent backup body and I have no need for anything better.
Since I don't shoot sports etc weddings are probably the fastest action I see through my viewfinder. The MK2 is solid, its reliable and it does what it says on the tin, so I am more than happy enough to use it as my primary backup. (I use a 1DX MK1 as my primary daily driver).

Thanks - interesting and informative. I’ve just bought one! This makes me think I’ve made a good choice.

[Viator]

I’ve had mine for eons and no way am I letting it go. What with the 24-70 and 70-200 f2.8 L lenses it’s just sublime

[adcommit]

I bought one in May for a very good price and it is by fat the best camera I've ever owned. Now I really want the Mark IV!

EF lenses are pretty affordable

I'm running the same setup with a 1.8 I plan to get a few other lenses soon 🙏

The ergonomics of the Panasonic S1 was one of the main things that sold me on it even though the S5 was out.

[PeterOgbodu]

i want one so badly. it has this character in colour I just cant explain it

[Gregou-pnlf]

I've just bought one a month ago and my life 's just changed ! Photography wasn't my main hobby...it is now

[fotoScentfx-zrkl]

I just sold a beat up 5d3 for a friend and have just purchased one for myself in excellent condition. I also have a 1Ds3 in excellent condition. I shoot mirrorless too but I can only afford the older professional cameras. Mirrored cameras have an aesthetic the mirrorless don't have, in both form and image quality. But, I also like how a mirrorless camera is easier to clean and keep clean (sensor).

[checksix_TC]

Simply enjoyed your video. I recall, Duade Paton did a similar video paying tribute to his E0S 5D3. Seems like this camera has some intrinsic quality that is so endearing to so many pro photographers. You got me thinking of upgrading from my EOS 60D to the EOS 5D3.

[rohnjoss]

I just bought one with Allen’s camera
Open box for 500
Such great condition and the sound of the shutter is satisfying

[MrEndijsG]

I bought 5D3 this year (2024) coming from 70D for 10 years! Planning to get Tamron 150--600mm G2 next!
I think for 450 euros it's amazing camera!

[ChrisBrogan]

What a really fun trip down memory lane. And how hilarious and wonderful the hair pics! You wore both well. :)
