BackgroundBackground MidMid--range SLR Projectrange SLR ProjectThe Mid-range SLR Project was launched during EOS 7D development to create truly strongmid-range models. The project involved all divisions including the development and designdivisions and sales companies. The EOS 5D Mark III will be the third model produced throughthis project.

The first camera in the 5D Series targeted True advanced amateurs who wanted a full-framecamera at a reasonable price. EOS 5D Mark III goes beyond this. Offering the advantages ofa full-frame sensor in addition to superb optical performance, this new EOS satisfies thecreative needs (and budgets) of True advanced amateurs while also serving as an excellentsecond camera for professionals.
To achieve these goals, a new CMOS sensor was developed and coupled with a fast imageprocessor. Sensor specifications were decided based on the concept of comprehensiveimage quality. Also, development of the image processor occurred concurrent with that of theprocessor in EOS-1Dx.
Both these advancements realize superlative images in a full-frame format in addition tooutstanding high-sensitivity performance, making this new EOS ideal for capturing outdoornight scenes and portraits along with dynamic indoor action.
Canon poured it on when developing EOS 5D Mark III so photographers across a widespectrum could benefit from its leading-edge features. In essence, EOS 5D Mark III raises
7
the bar and sets a new standard in its class.

the optimum pixel count was determined tobe approx.22.3 megapixels.*Standard ISO range in movie shooting is

Pixel count alone does not determine image quality, hence that EOS 5D Mark III's sensor has more pixels is not the solereason for the improved image quality. We aimed to achieve at ISO 25600 the same noise level as that of 5D Mark II atISO 6400. Of course, along with a drastic decrease in noise levels across the normal ISO range, noise reductionperformance beyond ISO 25600 was also improved.
