Dear John,
Thank you for your kind comments; much appreciated.
I presume you have a 1DMkIII too.
Following the 'Canon Fix' on the sub-mirror I considered the performance in AI Servo to be actually worse than that experienced 'pre-fix' !!! Over 500 test shots confirmed this beyond debate. The Canon dealer agreed with my conclusions.
The end result was the dealer replaced the camera. I now use a body having a Serial No. well outside the S/N's listed by Canon in their public announcements.
The difference in performance in AI Servo is immense.
I am still working my way through optimising the Custom Function settings, without resorting to calibrating specific lenses.
So far this approach is satisfactory.
Kind Regards,
Denis Glennon AO
