5DMarkIII

THE LEGEND

RE/DEFINED

PRECISION

FOCUSED

61-POINT HIGH-DENSITY RETICULAR AF

A giant leap forward in auto-focusing systems, the EOS 5D Mark III shares the same piece

of innovation used in Canon’s ﬂagship professional-standard EOS-1D Series. The discerning

61-Point High-Density Reticular AF system with 41 cross-type points provides enhanced

AF coverage for improved subject tracking capabilities and very precise focusing.

There are ﬁve central dual cross-type points for accurate focusing at f/2.8 (diagonal), another

21 central cross-type points for a maximum aperture of f/5.6, and 20 outer cross-type points

for focusing at f/4. The 61-Point High-Density AF system contributes to ﬁrst-rate low-light

performance of the EOS 5D Mark III, with an improved pixel conﬁguration that allows

focusing up to EV-2 at central AF points with an f/2.8 lens.

*Number of available AF points and cross-type points vary depending on the lens

One of the many technologies that go into making the EOS 5D Mark III’s AF system truly

remarkable is the AF Conﬁguration Tool that enables control of AI Servo AF III parameters

according to subject movement and shooting situation. These parameters include tracking

sensitivity, acceleration and deceleration of tracking, and AF point auto switching.

Effortlessly dynamic, nothing distracts from

the utter thrill of capturing a shot with the

EOS 5D Mark III. With a highly precise

61-Point High-Density Reticular AF system

backed up by a most intelligent metering

sensor, shoot assured.

Instantly focus on subjects

suddenly entering AF points

For subjects that accelerate or

decelerate quickly

For erratic subjects, moving in

any direction

For subjects that change

speed and move erratically

The AF Conﬁguration Tool can easily adjust the parameters

to suit various shooting conditions — versatile multi-purpose

setting, continuous tracking of subject while ignoring

obstacles, instant focus on subjects newly entering AF points,

tracking rapidly accelerating or decelerating subjects, tracking

erratic moving subjects, and tracking erratic subjects of

random speeds.
