Got the GRIII in and am loving it. Seems to be much better highlight recovery on this sensor than any other sensor I've used.

If there's much room for recovery, doesn't that just mean that the standard profile in Lightroom or whatever you're using doesn't make good use of the dynamic range, rather than being a property of the sensor? If the sensor has great dynamic range, that's wonderful in any case.
The tonality in the third one looks off, is that what happens with a lot of highlight recovery or just the fluorescent surfaces and interesting light?
And there seems to be a little more barrel distortion than on the old APS-C models, yes? No big deal of course.

I'm using Camera Raw and Photoshop CC 2019, and have not yet looked at a profile, I tend to work on images individually from the RAW file in Camera Raw. As for correcting the distortion - I never actually found a need for that with the ii, but you're right, there is more distortion here. The vignetting removal in camera doesn't totally even out the corners either.

My main niggle is the rear toggle switch for exposure compensation - it is always active unlike with how I have had the previous models set-up - so carrying the camera around the neck tends to allow my belly to set a compensation unbeknownst to the brain. I've been checking that, but have wildly underexposed several quick grabs because of this.
