p.1 #1 · 1D MKIII firmware 1.30


Anyone installed this yet, any adverse effects.
Do you need the previous version 1.25.0 already installed to install 1.30 or can you have an earlier version
Thanks

Went on like a snap no problems really don't notice any difference but again I don't use the wireless transmitter either. I had 1.2.5 installed previously

NO!!! You do not need 1.2.5 to install, 1.3.0 contains the VERY IMPORTANT 1.2.5 AF update you will probally find enhance your servo proformance.

I just installed firmware updates to both my 1D3 and 1Ds3. I know my 1D3 previously had like version 1.1.3 on it and it took 1.30 just fine. Haven't had a chance to use it yet so don't know. I should hope there will be no adverse effects. I was having AF issues before the firmware update so I can only hope that this fixes them a bit if not a lot. I already had a blue dot model so I didn't have to worry about the troubles that plagued the early 1D3 models. I hope the next time I shoot that I get better results. Some shots the thing was just now wanting to lock on. I couldn't even effectively lock onto a kid at the park swinging much less anything with more action. I have my fingers crossed.

I just got a nearly New Mark III, It had a high serial number and was outside of the serial number that had the recall. I called Canon anyway and asked if I had anything to worry about. They told me I had a affected number on the AF tracking issue and said if I had any trouble to send it in. I sent it in and they had it back within a week. If you are having trouble I would call Canon and see if you need to send your in.
Merry Christmas
