You've been reading the wrong pages ;)
The " flaw " was fixed 9months ago. Any Mark III released since Jan 2008 ( maybe even earlier? ) is fixed of the minor AF bug. Have been snapping away with mine in almost every condition imaginable and the AI servo has been spot on. Canon realised their mistake and they fixed it ;)
As for the 5D Mark II, I'm as suprised as you are that it hasnt surfaced yet. They've released 20D, 30D, 40D, 50D, 1000D and many other digital rebel replacements too.
My only guess could be that in all this time, the 5D can still hold it's own in the full frame market ? |
