I click on the Play button to watch the videos, but nothing happens. Can't get any of them to play.

I'm running Windows 7, 64 bit, and Internet Explorer 9.

If you have been able to watch the videos, can you post what OS and browser you are using?

[JaxPhotoBuff]

Update - I was able to watch the videos by switching browsers to Firefox version 3.6.3. So, if you have trouble in Microsoft Internet Explorer, try it with Firefox.

Note that the 5DIII has the same autofocus system as the 1Dx, so most of these videos are of interest to 5DIII owners as well.

Thanks for the link.  All I need now is my 1D X!  Here's hoping the bottleneck on the supply pipeline, whatever it is, is gone very soon.

Many thanks for the link.  My 1DX arrives this morning so I plan to watch these videos today!

Great link thanks.

You would think though that a company that deals with image-related products - both stills and video - would be able to embed videos that work in all browsers!

Well, kinda

The 5D Mark III doesn't have a dedicated DIGIC processor, as the 1Dx does, for autofocus.

Kinda not.      Both the 1D X and the 5DIII have a dedicated AF processor, and neither of them are a Digic processor.  You're thinking of the Digic 4 in the 1D X that's dedicated to metering (not AF).  Metering data are also fed into the AF system, though, and the 100K pixel metering sensor of the 1D X provides much more useful data than the 63-zone sensor of the 5DIII, which is why the 1D X has face tracking in phase AF, etc.

You wouldn't think so if you actually lived in Japan.
