Canon EOS-1D X Firmware 2.0.8 Released


Canon EOS-1D X camera
A few weeks ago, I reported the Canon EOS-1D X, Firmware Version 2.0.8 will be coming out soon. Now the new firmware has been released. As predicted, it contains only a minor fix.

  • Fixes a phenomenon which occurs when the “Shutter button half-press” menu item, configured in “C.Fn5: Operation” > “Custom Controls Menu”, is set to metering start only; depending on when the shutter button is half-pressed, it may initiate AutoFocus.

Download Firmware 2.0.8 for the Canon EOS-1D X at Canon USA website.

What really surprised me was Canon did not even drop a hint about the upcoming EOS-1D X Mk II camera at their recently concluded EXPO 2015 Show in New York City. Nikon is also expected to release their D5 camera soon but I expect Canon to announce the EOS-1D X Mk II after the Nikon debut.
