Interesting. Sounds like a relatively minor problem for most, but interesting that they so formally acknowledged it. I guess it would be pretty easy to confirm though, unlike the focus "issues" that they've had in the past.

Isn't it amazing the bugs that get missed when trying to rush out a model to compete (i.e. D800)? lol! You couldn't MAKE this stuff up!
I can imagine the big question looming over the board room with the product engineers: "What if we can't fix it with firmware??" Wouldn't be the first time a camera model needed a recall, oy VEY...
Funny thing is, along comes Joe NPN member, sets up his/her Gitzo, plugs in the remote, sets the 5D3 in manual mode, figures out the exposure(s), and heads home with a gorgeous 22mp mountain sunset without any clue of this latest oopsy by Canon.
