Will Auto Focus work with 5D MK III? I read that this lens does not autofocus with newer cameras and was made to autofocus with the film cameras.

It works with my 6D. I am not sure about the 5D MKIII since I don't own one. I believe the electronic interface for all canon camera is standard and the same, and so it should work. If you buy it under Amazon Prime then you can try it and return it within 7 to 10 days if you are not satisfied with it. I buy a lot from Amazon and returned few items before and had no issues in returning them.

No. The Canon 5D Mark III is a full frame camera and is not designed for the Canon EF-S line of lenses. I don't believe it will even mount on the 5D Mark III. Even if it did mount, the EF-S line is designed for the smaller APS size sensor line of Canon cameras. Thus, you would see a darkening of the corners of your image if it did mount. You need to stick to the EF line of lenses.

Yes. The 5D MKIII uses a standard size shared by other Canon DSLRcameras such as the 50D and 7D. This viewfinder includes an adapter which enables it to fit this camera.

I wasn't too thrilled with this unit. I found better results in using something from around the house that is tack sharp and used that to fine tune my AF. Something like a knick knack with some writing on it or a candle jar. That gave me better results. I'm a Nikon user so I can't answer your question on the 5D MKIII but I would assume that that camera would have an AF fine tune option.

Not as you might think or hope. It will not autofocus, which is the big problem with older lenses and any newer camera bodies below the D7XXX series. This should be a deal breaker, so just get the new G version of the lens...

Mine works perfectly on my 5D Mk3 and my 6d. You have to set it to one of the self-timer modes.

To the best of my knowledge, this will work with the 5D Mark II, it certainly works for the 5D Mark III.

I use it with my 60D; works fine. After I purchased it, I found out that the Canon RC-1 (from my 19993 10S) also worked with the 60D I bought. So, bottom line is, if you email Canon support and ask them if the RC-1 will work with the 5D Mark III, you should have your answer.

Yes it fits 5d mark iii. My camera is 6D but i've also used this camera on my friend's 5d mark 3. If you're looking for FF ultra wide, i really recommend this especially for the price! It is better than the 16-35 in terms of distortion (the fish eye effect) pictures on this looks just perfectly flat with a bit of distortion. The wide perspective made my landscape photography look much much better! Be careful with composition. I got a bit excited talking about this lol

I used to use Canon 60D with this lens that didn't come with really good photos. Yet when I upgraded to 5D Mark III that takes a extremely good photos.I won't suggest you to get this unless you upgrade to more high class body.

IT works with my canon 5D mkII and my 50ml EF 1.4,auto focus and aputure. You may have to play with the alignment for the tubes connections if you stack them. All work well in manual mode.

I also use this with my 5DII. I just tested it and the camera will refocus before the shot. If you don't want that, you can just turn off auto-focus on the lens.

Using this with a Cannon Dslr, the auto focus will not work. It becomes manual only for focus and fstop. Great for vintage Nikon lenses and video.

I have used this lens with a5000 the auto focus function works fine with shutter button no need of manual focus. Hope this helps.

I don't know much about the 6d as I have the mark III. But from I understand the 6d is full frame as is the mark III. If that's the case it should work very well with it. Keep in mind the Len is manual only which is really good when making a film/movies as the focus ring eases into the film. However since you said you will be outdoor, getting precise focus will be more challenging in sunlight as it will depend on your "eye". So it requires you to slow things down and taking your time when taking a picture as opposed to doing the half shutter to get it in focus. In terms of color and the image, the lens really is superior but only if you get things right. If it's not right, you are more likely to be upset because it then becomes a missed opportunity. So because of this some people have a love/hate relationship with the lens. Hope that helps

Yes! I have both the 5D Mark III and EF 85 1.8. They're a great combo, I use the 85 1.8 often for portraits.

Yes, I have a both a 5D Mk3 and a 7D, and this model works fine on both. It's a Canon-standard shutter release cord that comes with this remote, it should work just fine on any Canon DSLR, but I can specifically confirm it for both of these models.
