My Canon 5DIII impressions - part 1

This is the first decent picture I took with my new Canon EOS 5D Mk. III. It's the 4th one :). I took this shot while dicking around with the camera on the MRT.

The 5DIII comes with a silent shutter feature which is very nice for stealthy street shooting. Granted my subject had earphones on but DSLR shutters are comparatively noisy to compact cameras so it's a nice feature to have.

As Lightroom doesn't read 5DIII RAW files yet, this file was processed from the JPG. I really like the AWB in this camera: it's definitely more accurate than my 60D and the 5DII. I've always tried to avoid having to adjust WB on the camera so this is good for me.
