Can Anyone Help/ answer my Q?

Hi there, My name is Arpi. I shoot on Canon 5D in NYC and just got the Mark II a couple of months ago... To cut to the chase, I just upgraded the firmware to 2.08 and it looks it's still missing something I'm hoping you could help with... So here's the scenario I did with my 5d Mark1 on a daily base: On a event/gig, I'm setting wireless flashes that I trigger with skyport trigger system or ebay radio slaves. As I also do ambient light shots, I set my C1 in the CFn(on Mark1) not to trigger the flash. So by the turn of the dial I was able to change from flash lighting to ambient w/out having to turn off the trigger connected to the pc sync or any flash I had on my camera. Now, on the mark II there;s no such setting and Im having a hell of a time trying to swith to ambient lighting , turn the dial, turn off the wireless trigger+ catch the moment I was about to. The pc sync connector still triggers even though I set it not to fire on the speedlite. I know I seem picky and maybe peculiar, but this was a great feature since the Costum setting and I am willing to Pay /donate to anyone who's willing to give me a hand. You don't want to know how badly this affects me( have in mind I use my first 5D as a second camera too) Appreciate any advice or direction I could take.(email me directly if you wish :a@vidi.ro) Arpi
