Since the 5D3\'s AF is almost identical to the 1DX, if Canon screwed up this new 61pt system then Canon won\'t be around by next year. I never followed the 1D3 fiasco so not sure how big of a deal it really was but I\'m sure Canon won\'t stick anything less than a steller AF in its two flagship cameras. Did you order a 5D3?
No, I haven\'t ordered the new camera, and I will not do that as long as its price + grip is > $2,500.
However, I think they\'ve probably got their new AF system right.
Here is probably a Rough winged swallow, not really a shot for your typical birders because they couldn\'t count feathers on it, and the framing departs from the birding cliche.
Handheld 1DMkIIN + 100-400 @400mm wide open.
