It's very difficult for anyone to answer that... if it's a case of timing of focus locks and suchlike, then that should be easily done via firmware update.
I have had one problem in 2 weeks, and that was a small low contrast static subject with a 300/2.8 that i had the camera on to view rather than take a photo of... and the camera was in AI servo as well (not at all ideal for a static), and focus wouldn't lock at all, it was all over the place.... but I'm pretty sure my 1Ds would've locked on in AI servo though.
Some of those reporting problems are saying that they can't even get a lock in one shot mode... which is very bizarre, and thankfully one I have never encountered.
As it is, it seems like some pretty specific circumstances have to take place for the problems to arise... long fast lenses wide open, subject coming towards you at speed, high temperatures? heat haze? humidity? Mars in alignment with Saturn?
cheers,
