However as far as I know there are few if any zoom lenses that fast other than those, Canon makes nothing even close and neither does Nikon, unless you get into some exotic stuff, I reckon.

They are amazing, but I don't know if IS will work with them, have no idea.

Don't know if you heard, but there is a new Sigma 18-35 F1.8 zoom lens available in Canon mount.
APSC sensor only, so it wouldn't work on the 5D. Good lens for any APSC DSLR camera or
Super 35mm large sensor video camera. I wonder if other fast zooms will follow??

I've been thinking about that very lens + a Metabones Speedbooster Canon EOS lens to m4/3rds adapter could be a really, really nice combination.

I wonder why they have brought out a Nikon G to MFT Speedbooster but not a Canon EOS to MFT?

I've used the GH3 and the 5D Mark III. They are both great cameras. One thing to note, the GH3 does not have focus peaking and the 5D you can get it with Magic Lantern.

Hi Daniel - I've never tried magic lantern with my Mark III as it seems because it's Alpha you have to update the firmware every time you start up the camera - is this not the case? If I had focus peaking I would definitely use it more!
