The Canon 5Dmk.III is a digital single-lens reflex camera (DSLR) capable of shooting high resolution images with a 23.3 megapixel full-frame sensor and 1080p video. The kit comes with the camera body, a battery and charger, a 512GB memory card, and a 24mm-70mm autofocus zoom lens. Other lenses may be available by request.

Note: While this camera shoots very high quality video, due to limitations of the DSLR format, video is restricted to clips no longer than 29 minutes, 59 seconds or 4GB, whichever is reached first. If your intention is to record longer length video, such as a guest speaker or student presentations, it's highly recommended to check out one of our camcorders instead.
