A problem with one body could be at best; tolerable. But still no updates for all of them except 1Dx right?

Well, up until the 5D MkIII, only "pro" bodies would do f/8 AF. The hue and cry when the 1DX came out without it shook them up a little, I think.

Right now, the 1D MkIV and 1DX have f/8 AF and Canon has formally announced that a firmware update will be available for the 5D MkIII in April. I would think that Canon would realize that f/8 AF is good for TC sales, but maybe they prefer to sell more super-telephotos.
