Canon Update On Mark III AutoFocus's Snafu - Houston, We Don't Have A Problem

We promised to keep you updated on the EOS-1D Mark III AF's issue, so here it is. Canon has issued an update to the previous service notice today. Their verdict is mark III has no issue whatsoever since the last fix, their best AF body ever, period.RG's interpretation is Canon is buying time to complete to finalize the new fix posted here. I'm skeptical if there's one, or ever a cure to it. I'll wait for Mark III N at Photokina this Fall.
