I was wondering if you were going to jump into a mirrorless system, the eye detection autofocus is a little bit like cheating and I don't think I could ever go back to not having it now.

Nice series as usual, and new gear is always fun.

Thank you so much.
Mirrorless just wasn't in my budget, and as far as I know switching to mirrorless would also require me to switch my lenses as well, making it even further out of my budget. Eventually I will make the switch when it's feasible though. They eye-detection is definitely something that I think would be very helpful.

Good eye for composition and lighting The 135mm 2.8 has been one of my favorites , specially for portraits.
Thank you so much. I'm really looking forward to using it for other portraits that I've had in my mind's eye that I think wouldn't work out with a shorter lens.
Nice set Daniel. If you think the AF jump between those two camera's is big, You should try the R5 or R6 and the eye AF. In my opinion, the are barely on the same planet.

Thank you. Eventually I'll get around to upgrading to mirrorless when it's affordable for me. For now I'm very happy with the 5DMKIII, but I bet if I get a taste of the eye-AF I'll never want to go back.
Daniel, I think 3,4,5, & 6 look great. Eyes in 1 & 2 are soft, but selective PP could fix that. I have a used copy of the 135mm f2.0 L, and it is one of the finest lens I have ever used. Congrats on the new camera.
