Re: First Frame Black Problem - Quick Question

Just as an update and perhaps a ray of hope to those who have 5Ds to send in for repair. I just checked with Precision and my 5D, suffering from the 1st shot black problem is now out of repair, hopefully soon to be on its way back to me (I don't like this life without camera).

Sent the camera in on 12/26
Received at Precision 12/28
In repair at Precision 12/28
Placed on hold so that they could order parts 12/29
Parts arrived 1/9
Camera back in repair 1/9
Camera out of repair 1/10

Hopefully being shipped back soon.

I will provide a final summary of how long it takes to ship back, how it works, and exactly what was done. I was told that it was the shutter assembly that was replaced. I hope there are more details on the paperwork that I get back with the camera.
