As far as I can see, there is no mention of f8 focusing capability in either the EOS 1D brochure or the other technical data we have. The implication is that all seven of the central focusing sensors are the same, unlike the EOS 3 and EOS 1V which have a different centre sensor. However, it is possible that this is an omission from the data and that the camera will focus at f8.
