Just happens out of the blue when you try to trigger a shot. Camera locks and you have to turn off and on to clear.

Found this post on another forum.....anyone heard anything else? The error is annoying when it happens.

Hmmm. Sounds bogus to me. I've never heard of this problem, and it's never happened to me. OTOH, I was surprised just now to find that the v121 firmware is actually avaiable for download on the Canon Canada site. OTOH, the attempt to download fails with the good old "Error 404 -- Not Found" error message.

My 1DX is registered with CPS Canada, including automatic updates when any new support is available. I've received nothing from CPS about this.

It's not on the Canon USA site at all. Something's not right ...

Here is the link to Canada, took me a while to find the page, well hidden!

http://www.canon.ca/inetCA/serviceDetail?m=load&id=45&sid=7&mid=2200903&type=S

I am going to wait until a few others load it up, but I have had about 6 of these error 80 lock ups.

Yes. I know. That's what I was talking about in my first reply. The download option at that location does not work.

had err80 this weekend, on taking the camera for the first time out
24/1.4 attached, not sure what triggered it but if i am not mistaken even after turning it off the card led was ON, and i had to remove the battery to reset it

lets hope the firmware will be out soon, i am also interested on the fix for the image size (on a test body had few jpgs out of the blue, i always shot raw)

There was some talk on the Sportsshooters forum about 1DX's getting random err80's. I don't think anyone ever came to a solid conclusion as to what actually caused it.

My shutter count is around 40K right now and so far I have not had a single error. (knock on wood)

the new version of software, the link is now gone on the website......maybe too premature? I guess stay tuned...

The disabled v121 link has been removed from Canon Canada.

The US link works for me.
