I'm sorry to hear this :( I know first hand how it feels to have this amazing camera that you plan to keep and treat it beyond anyone's reasonable expectations of care, only to have it marred by...

I don't think my CPS status has anything to do with what their willingness to cover the issue or not. I think Canon service centers around the would are just inconsistent with some things. Who...

Well this just makes me mad, that your canon service will take care of the issue and acknowledges that it is related to the recall. I pushed canon service Canada and the wouldn't budge on mine,...

Sounds like they're on the prism, just like mine :-( I wish canon would acknowledge it and cover the repair/service

It looks like a few people are seeing this on their 1Dx cameras. If the specs are on the prism, you won't be able to clean them. These specs look different from dust or other debris on the mirror...

You didn't do anything wrong; that's a corrupt raw file. There's no way to save the raw image but if it's an important image, you can extract the embedded jpeg using Quick CR2 to jpeg tool:...

Actually, the 1DIV is a couple of steps backwards from the 1Ds3 when it comes to low light af. It improves on tracking subjects in extremely bright light, where the 1Ds3 got confused at times, but...

I don't see how you got to that from my post... I'm basically recommending the 5D3 over either the 1Ds3 or the 1DIV.--If there's typos, you can be sure I used my iPhone.

+1 for the 5D3. I went from the 5D2, to the 1DIV, then dumped the 1DIV and re-bought the 5D2. The 1DIV was the worst Camera I have ever used for af in low light. I bought it because our studio...

Uh, yeah, actually there is a class of cameras that canon considers it's "professional" line. It's any of the equipment recognized by their cps program, which include the 1DX and L lenses. --If...

Yes and no. We generally had a mix of 120 & 35mm, colour and b&w, so we would switch between the two, and make sure there was some overlap, but it was a very different day back then. --If there's...

Wow, you seem oddly certain that you represent not just the majority, but the entirety here. The problem is that you're not only wrong, but you've become a noisy gong. Clearly the professional...

I like how you just became "we all".

Uh, yeah... Always have a backup camera for pro work. If your camera dies during a job, you don't lose the images shot up to that point though. I can't honestly believe that this is even a...

You know what dude, just Google "memory card died" and tell me from the results that this doesn't happen.

Wow, if you believe that SanDisk software will recover from a dead card... Okay, you're all right; dual media is a dumb idea. It will never happen to you.

Shhhhh... You're revealing our real ages here! You have a point, but to counter, this ain't those days anymore. I'm just saying, it may or may not ever happen to you (card failure), but why not...

Red just nailed it. Couldn't agree more. --

Well lucky you. After running a studio for 12 years, with a combined 1200+ weddings through it, we've only seen it four times. That was still four times too many. I'm glad that you have never...
