See our Continuing Coverage of the Autofocus Problems.
Additional Note (June 23, 2007) : I may have access to the 1D MKIII again next week. If so, I will attempt to more directly replicate the problematic conditions being reported by some other websites. Hopefully, I will also be able to report on some additional features of the camera. If you have any specific requests please let me know in the forum thread.
