I found this posted on the Canon website. I'm not sure if anyone else has posted it yet. It covers everything from using focus points to microadjustments. It may help those with AF problems

Funny that they mention the 40D as one camera that has AF MA :)

yep :).

I thought everyone saying MA at 50x of focal length was just a bunch of BS someone made up but I guess it's true now
