On April I am about to go to Europe and take some pictures there, what if this happened while I am there, I have another camera, CANON 1D MARK II, but not planning to bring that one. Anyway, I am so glad to see this article, that at least the CANON will take care of it. I just went to their web site and sent them an e-mail.

I tried to put it back on but couldn’t. I just did the point and shoot for the rest of the awards. I could still get a image but it wasn’t always a good one. I just so glad this was a wedding.

I’m going to contact Canon service center today and see about getting it repaired ASAP.

thanks for your post about this problem.
