7D high-speed shooting not working

Yet again you're assuming my photos aren't worthwhile and are underexposed. They're not. I'm not ruining my shutter by shooting short 8FPS bursts.

You don't get it, do you? I'm not saying that your shots aren't worthwhile, but if you are running into the well documented camera slowdown due to the AF/metering tie in then you are shooting in circumstances when 8 fps is physically impossible to achieve without underexposing the shot. So you have a different problem, it can't be the one you claim it is!

You can get around the camera metering by holding down the DOF preview button. This will allow a constant framerate in any lighting condition in Manual Mode. Does anyone have any idea how to make the DOF preview button into a toggle botton ie. either on or off rather than having to keep it depressed manually?
