If you think that is the direction you need to go a total reset to factory default is the best option. A proper Firmware update can indeed fix a lot of issues for lots of different products that rely on computerized components, depending on what is in the update.
I couldn't tell you how many times I have resurrected a motherboard, laptop, docking station, and even cameras with the right firmware update. A total reset to factory default was the first thing I tried and this did not solve the issue I was having. In my research, I have heard multiple mentions that the autofocus problem I am experiencing was fairly common and was hoping that the firmware updates that had been released after the camera launched may have addressed this issue.
The challenge was finding the actual update file because Canon in it's infinite wisdom decided that they would remove it from their website years after it was released becuase that model wasn't supported anymore. I'm trying everything I can to fix this before investing in a new camera. I pretty much disagree with your feelings but you need to do what you see as best. Just make sure you read what the FW update does.
I guarantee it will not fix a broken camera. Plus if done incorrectly because the camera is faulty, the new FW can brick the camera. Then only Canon can revive it.
You are correct that some FW updates have bug swats in them. So if that is the problem you are having, all won't have the problem, you need the update.
And that is exactly what and why there is FW updates. Again, just make sure you read what the FW update does. Because if your issue is not addressed in it, it won't fix your camera's problem.

I was pretty proud of it. I know you are probably asking yourself, how in the world has Michael Andrew been selling these things for the last few weeks if he didnt have them? The problem with these shorter runs, is they are not so cost effective. The disks I received yesterday were professionally made, complete with glass mastered disks, guaranteed to play on any DVD normal player, and they cost about half as much to produce as in-studio disks.
The only problem with this route is you have to order at least of them. Now, comes the hard part, the marketing. I know there are tons of photographers out there with Canon 40D's, who have spent all this money on them and arent sure how to use them. I got an email today from a student who said he has been shooting with the Canon D series cameras, like the 10D, 20D, 30D, etc and said he didnt like the camera because the pictures didnt look professional and wanted something that could take a professional picture like the ones he saw on my website.
Now to answer another question I am sure you have by now. LOL : Well about a week ago I wrote a review on the video with a very specific purpose, and that was for the search engines to pick it up.
I am trying to learn everything I can about helping search engines find websites. This is the missing link, I have a good product, there are photographers out there who want it, how can I help photographers find my Canon 40D DVD? Eye Point. Dioptric Adjustment Correction.
