1Dx firmware 1.0.6 available

Firmware Version 1.0.6 incorporates the following fixes.

Fixes a phenomenon in which the AF Microadjustment cannot be correctly carried out.

Fixes a phenomenon such that when using the camera with combinations of certain lens *1) and extender *2) the images captured become back-focused.*1) EF 70-200m f/2.8L IS II USM or EF200mm f/2L IS USM When used with *2) Extender EF 1.4x III or Extender EF 2x III

Fixes a phenomenon in which, when the camera is powered on in very dark environments (including instances when the lens cap or the body cap is attached), Error 80 appears on the camera.

Fixes the following phenomenon: if two CF cards are inserted into the camera and the "Standard" or "Auto switch card" settings is selected for the recording method for [Record func+card/folder sel.], and then one of the CF cards is removed and then reinserted into the card slot, the card selected for recording and playing back images may be switched to the other CF Card.

Fixes a phenomenon in which the AF microadjustment value is not correctly displayed in the EXIF information of the images captured.

Displays a "O" or "X" result to indicate whether images have been successfully transferred through the FTP protocol when using the FTP protocol when using the WFT-E6 Wireless File Transmitter.

* The firmware update takes approximately seven minutes.

I am not one for long reviews with detailed technical analysis and such. all I will say is this.
I have been using canon 1series bodies since my beloved canon EOS 1n RS film camera. This 1Dx is by far the best D-slr I have ever used (please note the D before SLR...I still think my trusty 1nRS is king).
My one and only complain is no F/8 AF...

Yes, the f8 is an issue but how about in video mode, is it possible then?

I'd love to know how it is better than previous cameras. I'm still on the 1DII and the 5DII!
