Very cool! What is even more exciting is the functionality this might bring. I love the CDHK for my p&s but would give my left arm for Auto ISO on my 5D's with the same capability as Nikon (which I already have on my canon p&s via the hack).

If these hackers will be able to give a 40D a fully functionable micro adjustment feature, I am sold

Ah, fantastic! It's great to see active development of custom firmware changes like this. Some were done for the 300D, several P&S's, and now the 40D.

if someone were to hack the 40D firmware to allow micro AF adjustments, i would pay real money (not shiny bits of glass and kisses) for it.

real. money.
