Canon 5D Mark III Loyalty Program

Hi,
I had a couple questions regarding the canon loyalty program. Hopefully I'm in the right place on the forums.
1. When cameras go "Out Of Stock", how long do they take generally to come back into stock? Weeks, Months or completely random?
2. Can you still use the Canon Loyalty Progam on Refurbished DSLR's like the Mark III (that already has a discount). For example, right now it says the Mark III is "Out of Stock" for $2,447.00. Would I be able to use the Loyalty Program to get an additional 20% off? making the sale price roughly $2000 + Tax?
I've never used the Loyalty Program before, so was just hoping someone could give me some feedback on that.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Guys!

Completely random!  There has to be a defect of some kind and sent back and it fixed by Canon.
CPS offered me a refurb some time ago on a 5D Mk III and Canon Loyality but it was a little more than $2447 at the time.
I have bought four, 1 series cameras, from them and I don't know if that makes a difference.
The best answer is to call them.
EOS 1Ds Mk III, EOS 1D Mk IV EF 50mm f1.2 L, EF 24-70mm f2.8 L,
EF 70-200mm f2.8 L IS II, Sigma 120-300mm f2.8 EX APO
Photoshop CS6, ACR 8.7, Lightroom 5.7

  • Hi. I have Lightroom 4 installed. I cannot download my CR2 files from the Canon 5D Mark III camera. I have downloaded Lightroom 5 thinking it was an update but it appears I have to pay for the program. Any ideas how I can get lightroom 4 to accept my CR2

    The Canon 5D Mk 111 was supported from LR 4.1, see the link below. Just update LR to the latest version. See link below

  • Canon 5D Mark III - underexposes

    Hello,
    I've noticed that my Canon 5D Mark III underexposes somewhere between 2/3 stops and one stop.
    I've taken a test photo and I've attached the histogram and the exif. I photographed a white sheet of paper
    Is this behaviour normal or is there a problem in the camera's metering system?
    Thanks,

    You are in partial metering mode, which is fine if you are shooting a plain white piece of paper. However most of the time I'd recommend either Evaluative instead, or if you are more accustomed to it, Center Weighted. Or use Spot Metering in some cases. Partial is sort of like a "Large Spot Metering" mode.
    Evaluative has the advantage of putting extra emphasis on the area right around the active AF point, i.e. presumably around your subject. The rest of the image area is considered, too, but more weight is given to the active AF point. Center Weighted metering doesn't do this (it's sort of an "old fashioned" method of metering, but some people are accustomed to it from using older cameras.)
    Do a Google search on Expose To The Right (ETTR), which is a common technique used by Canon shooters. Like hsbn mentioned above, I think Canon is a bit conservative about their metering, erring a little toward underexposure to "protect the highlights". This was a good practice back in the days of slide film, but is just the opposite of what you want to do with digital. To minimize noise in images, it's better to slightly overexpose and pull the exposure back down a little in post processing. Not a lot... just +1/3 to +2/3 stop. Here is a link to one of the better descriptions of ETTR I've seen. There are other tutorials and discussions about it other places online, so do a search if you wish.  
    Oh, and there was an exposure issue with the 5D III early on. The problem was a light leak near the top LCD, that would cause underexposure from additional light reaching the metering array in the viewfinder. Canon did a recall made some changes to fix the problem. Yours would have to be a very early production camera that was never fixed under the recall, to have this problem.  The problem would vary, depending upon how strong light was striking the top of the camera whle shooting. Outside on a bright sunny day would cause more error than shooting indoors in low light.

  • HT3825 How to view RAW from Canon 5D mark III for OS 10.6

    To 'Preview' RAW files from Canon 5D mark III, it is known that you need to install the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 3.12 , but it can only be used with iphoto 9, which in turn only work in OS 10.7, so there is no way for 10.6 users to 'Preview' the RAW files? Please help if you no any other ways, thank you!

    Which Adobe program?
    Which version?

  • I cannot open .CR2 files - am using OS X Mavericks?  The images were downloaded from a Canon 7D Mark III.

    Hello,
    My mother-in-law saved some pictures to my computer but I cannot open them in Lightroom or any other program that lets me edit them.  They have a .CR2 extension and she uses a Canon 7D Mark III.  Any tips?  Thanks!

    it's a special cannon file format
    http://filext.com/file-extension/CR2
    you will maybe require special canon software to open them
    or you can try google

  • Canon 5d Mark III and Lightroom 4.3 tethered shooting issues.

    I bought a new Canon 5d Mark III and upgraded my lightroom to 4.3.  I have been having issues shooting tehtered.  I'll shoot and get some frames coming in and when I start plugging away the program bar will spin and I'll only get a few grey frames and it just kind of freezes.  I don't know what to do. 

    LR4.3 was supposed to improve Lightroom's built-in tethering, but in my experience it still has some reliability problems - especialy in recovering from broken connections (not just unplugging USB but also if the camera loses power by sleeping or when changing a memory card).
    Sorry if some of this is basic info, but I'd recommend you try a different USB cable - the cable end that connects to the camera is easilly damaged in a way that makes a connection possible, but unstable (I strongly recommend finding a cable with a 90 degree downward bend at the camera plug). Also, we often have to send a camera body in to have the USB port serviced. Canon has begun to provide a small rubber boot to reinforce the USB connection at the port, but they won't sell the part outside of a repair service. Be sure to use some kind of stress-relief for the cable at the camera. Tethertools sells one, but I've made mine DIY with a little string and a small binder clip... nearly free. Finally, be sure your cable is less than about 15 feet. If you need to go longer, I've successfully tethered with two cheap powered repeaters from Monoprice, but no single link should be over 15 feet.
    Oh yeah, also set your camera to not sleep for a long time.
    Beyond all that, is using EOS Utility for capture and LR Auto-import a viable option for you? It works very well for me. I use the Apple "Image Capture" app to tell my system to launch EOS Utility whenever the camera is connected - and set EOS Utility to launch into remote capture/camera control mode. It's very stable and recovers from disconnects or camera power loss and the remote camera control/live view can be pretty handy.
    Another plus is that if you do need to disconnect USB and shoot to card, you can just copy new images from the card to your watched folder and they are imported to Lightroom with the same settings and location.
    The only downsides for me is that there is no way to have a crop apply to new images using auto import -- and I have to re-save my develop preset each time I make a change. Using the "Same as Previous" option under develop settings in native tethering is so great for this and I'd love to see a similar option added to auto import.
    Hope this helps.

  • Does PSE11 show HDR exif data for a Canon 5D Mark III?

    I have taken some pictures with the HDR feature on my Canon 5D Mark III. The HDR image that the camera creates does not show that it was created using the camera's HDR feature when viewed with PSE11. The Canon Software that came with my camera is ImageBrowserEX 1.4.0 and it shows these data: HDR Shooting Enable, Adjust dynamic range +-2, HDR Effect Natural, Auto Image Align Enable. Is there a way to show the HDR exif in PSE11? Thanks, Anne

    Thanks -- I should have mentioned in my original question that I had already looked at File>Info. The usual stuff is there but nothing about the image being created from the HDR camera function, or at least that I could see. I went through all the tabs including Advanced and just don't see it. I will try to figure out how to ask Adobe Technical Support and how to request that they get that info included if it's not there. Anne

  • When will finder show a thumbnail or preview of the raw file images from the Canon 5d mark iii?

    I am wondering if anyone has an update on when finder will show a thumbnail for the raw files from the Canon 5d mark III? I've done all the updates possible and nothing has changed, I can't do a quick preview either, it just shows the extension image, not the actual image taken. (The symbol for crw).

    I had the same problem for a Canon EOS-1D X and finally got around it by viewing the images in Adobe Bridge. Worked beautifully!

  • Camera Raw 7 does not recognize Canon 5D Mark III RAW files

    Hello,
    I have Adobe Creative Cloud installed and I use Adobe Photoshop CS6 with Camera Raw 7. Photoshop nur Bridge CS6 do not recognize the RAW files from the Canon 5D Mark III, though it says on the Adobe support site that the camera is supported since Camera Raw 6.7
    When I try to open the .cr2-File I get the message "Photoshop cannot open the file".
    I use Win7 (64 Bit).
    Any help?
    Thanks in advance,
    Robert

    Hi Robert,
    Its a known issue as the PS CS 6 was launched with ACR 7 however the support in Photoshop CS 6 would come with ACR 7.1 update which will be live soon.
    You are completely right in saying that Canon 5D Mark III was supported in ACR 6.7 but it was only intended for >PS CS 5 & 5.1.
    In the meanwhile if you want you can download the RC version of ACR 7.1 from labs.adobe.com.
    Thanks

    Thanks

    What exactly happens when you try to open raw files from Canon 5D Mark III in PS CS6. Do you get any error message? An error screenshot would help.
    Make sure your PS CS6 is up-to-date from Help > Updates.
    Restart the machine and retry.

    Documentation seems to be no help.
    Any ideas?

    You can download the updates manually and try to install them Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh

  • How to import Raw files from the Canon 5D Mark III into PSE12? [was: cr2]

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 and I can't import Canon 5D Mark III CR2 files.

    Not sure what you mean by view the photos?  Are they showing in the camera raw dialog when you choose a CR2 file from the menu in expert mode:
    File >> Open
    What computer and operating system are you using?
    Can you try shooting a couple of new CR2 files and then put them into a folder on your hard drive rather than the external drive. Can you import from that location using the Organizer menu:
    File >> Get photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders

  • Upgraded Adobe LR 4.1, CS6 Beta & got the Canon 5D Mark III, WHEN is next dot release Camera Raw?

    I Purchased the Upgraded Adobe LR 4.1, CS6 Beta & got the Canon 5D Mark III, Mac Pro server update to Lion, WHEN is next dot release Camera Raw? My workflow has trippled in time because of this issue. I'm so frustrated with having to convert images in a slowed up piece of crap canon software package and then wait another decade for the newest LR to load the images I could crap fire! Come on Adobe, where's the release? After a few grand you'd think we'd get a better response time. As for Canon, they are not consistant with community software sharing and can kiss my *!! because to leave Adobe hanging sux!
    There should be new laws that penalize jerks that screw with workflow!
    Time is money, let's go Adobe!

    "so there are no Adobe staff here to see your rant."
    Oh, they're here    and they see it...
    BTW this might help?
