Not ouch. There is a problem with the secondary mirror assembly that is easily put right. This is only right that Canon will do a recall. These things happen from time to time and as long as they are fixable there isn't an issue.

Ouch, as this will cost them alot to recall and remanufacture the faulty units.

Relief for all those that questioned their own skills trying to adapt to a possibly faulty camera in the first place :mad: I'd be p****d off paying that money for a faulty camera staright from production!
