I got caught out with the AI servo thing last night too. I wonder why I wasn't getting a nice "peep" sound on focussing. Set it back onto single shot and got the focus sounds back again..

With the "undetouchables" firmware upgrade, you have the option of 3200, as well as some cusom functions. I used it with my 300 before I got my 20D. http://www.CherishMyPhotos.com
