Canon EOS-1D X Firmware 2.0.8 Spotted

The camera does a lot of things when the button is half pressed. Which thing or things that will be described when the new firmware becomes official.

To me it seems me, that firmware can't change how the half press feels. There is no controllable feedback build-in any button on that camera according to me.

Yes, finally! The half press was unusable... ::)

Hmm... so what's wrong with the half press?

Absolutely nothing, I thew in a "said no one ever"-smiley at the end there.

Pretty much everybody with a 1dx uses BBF anyway so I can't see what this is about.

The button they should do something about is the bottom left "file-size/format" button, I never change from raw yet it can't be programmed to do anything else.

I guess I'm the exception who doesn't have BFF activated. Tried few times, doesn't help on my shooting so reverted back.

Same. I switched my BBF to change to spot metering.

Hmm, that's actually clever. Might fit my shooting better. What other options were there?
