I am interested if any of you guys have switched from Nikon to Canon and could share some experience.
I shoot mainly Leica M and S, but with 2 small kids I sometimes think I sometimes might be able to get some shots with a faster AF.
I still have my Nikon D700 setup but for some reasons (for example color) I dont like the IQ so much compared to my Leica images. Also I like 50mm fov a lot and the Nikon 50/1.4 is just not such a great lens.
I believe the Canon 50/1.2 is much better. So I am thinking of replacing my D700+many Nikons with a 5dIII and few but fine lenses. The idea would be 16-35/2.8, 50/1.2 , either 85/1.2 or 135/2.0 and a Telezoom.
I wonder those who use the 5dIII-how happy are you?
How do you find colors?
How precise and reliable do you find the AF?
How is overall handling.
There is a lot of hype about the D800, but I still feel D800 grass is to green sometimes and skin tones slightly yellowish. I tried both Nikon 50/1.4g and SIgma 50/1.4 but they dont seem to be any close to the Canon 50/1.2.
Also while the Nikon 14-24 is excellent, I would find the 16-35/2.8 Canon range much much more usefull for me.
Thanks for any 5dIII experience.
