Hot on the heels of Canon's embarrassing confirmation that the hardware design of the EOS 5D Mark III has a flaw that allows light into the body, testing by specialists DxO Labs indicate only minor advantages from the new model and - unlikely to help in the ongoing Canon vs. Nikon platform war - performance still lagging behind that of the D800.

Canon 5D Mark III light leak confirmed by company

, Apr 14th 2012 Discuss [13]

The Canon 5D Mark III is a beast of a digital camera. At $3,500 customers rightly expect a high level of precision and perfection. The idea alone of some sort of fundamental hardware flaw would be enough to destroy the pristine image that the device is supposed to represent. So you can just imagine how damaging it must have been for Canon to come out and admit that there is a problem with the design of the camera. Read The Full Story
