AF Point Color on the 5D Mark III & 1D X Update [CR2]

User preference known by Canon I have been talking to various professionals about what they think about the black AF points on Canon’s new 61 point AF system.

A lot of people are finding it hard and/or impossible to see which AF point is selected when shooting in dark conditions, like a wedding reception. There are also people telling me they’re having trouble tracking birds in flight with the 1D X and the black AF points.
