Yes, I think mostly it is Zeek’s faultif M is shadowing the 5D3.
I agree that resolution is overvalued most of the times — particularly if the final goal is to share your videos on YT, as they will be watched by users in some small floating window on their smartphone screen at some low resolution / high compression.
I guess that the intended use case should always be the main driver in choosing your cam. For instance, I’m shooting video mainly to conserve memory of relevant family moments, to be watched on a (not huge, but still much bigger than a smartphone) 4K UHD HDR TV screen. And 14-bit 1x1 3.5K (which should be called 3.7K according to UHD standard btw) encoded into HEVC Main10 profile shines like a jewel on it (if only I were good at grading, that isbut I’m learning). I can definitely tell the difference with 1080, especially if it is 3x3 (I have a 70D too, and btw heaven knows how much I miss DPAF on 5D3). So yeah, in my case choice of 5D3 is no brainer… I got one used for 300 bucks some time ago and that is the deal I’m most satisfied of. Ever.
