What you say is correct.

But, it might be just as well to buy a new camera. Something like an EOS 30d or 40d would cost probably about the same as a repair/fix from canon, if such a thing is even possible (the 400d may not be supported by canon any more). A 40d (for example) would have similar specs to the 400d, but it would have AF microadjustment. The only downside (IMO) would be added weight.

There are a lot of folks on the other canon forum who love the 40d.

I don't think the 40D, or any Canon xxD DSLR before that had AFMA. It started with the 50D. It was removed in the 60D and came back with the 70D.

Sorry, my mistake.

Still, a 50d is only about £15 more.

The 4000D also has a higher megapixel count than the 30D, 40D, or 50D.

Megapixels aren't everything.

I'm starting to feel like the bad guy who only suggests buying new gear. I'll shut up now.
