Default Re: EOS-1D Mark III and EOS 1-Ds Mark III FIRMWARE UPGRADES

Both co-exist, I find it great, especially as I've the 5D since Monday, now both can AF select the same way.

Strangely, despite I hating the way the MKIII focussed [select], I actually find it more useful to employ ** sometimes *** but don't take that joystick away ~ focus any which way now, great ~ the old method is still needed for the vertical ~ one might change hand position and shoot with the elbow sticking up in the air ~~~ to be able to reach the joystick ~~
