I got to believe that Canon has no statement because they have no remedy (at this time).
That is what I also believe which is why there is no way I'm buying this camera at this point in time. I love Canon gear, and I was ready to buy this camera before all the fallout began. That Canon has neglected to comment on this issue is their acknowledement that, in their opinion, nothing is seriously wrong with the 1D Mark III that warrants addressing (fixing). With that kind of cavalier attitude towards consumers, my opinion of Canon has tarnished, and never again will I purchase a new Canon product w/o it being throughly (and positively) reviewed by media and customers alike. I got lucky on the 1DMkII which I bought less than two weeks after it's realease, and it has continued to perfom excellent to this very day.
Even if I was filthy rich and had 8K to drop on the 1DsIII, there is no way in hell I'd line up to be one of it's first buyers - even if it is a studio camera geared for still portraits.
