ouch, that sucks.
I'd say call Canon, they can tell you how much it should cost.

Ouch! But it depends on how it happened; whether it was "just" the mirror, or some of the activating gear that went, or whether it tore out of the shutter housing and what it might have taken with it. I'm afraid that your options are limited to "send it to Canon for estimate" and "buy a 20D to replace it".

you can also just go to canon's website and e-mail them, they might be able to give you a quote like that too.

Shiko,

I don't think you got the camera model right.

There is either
- the 10D (no MK something) or
- The 1D MK II

Best regards,
Andy

Most likely so :lol:

I assumed Shiko wanted to tell us what camera he owned (he didn't state that so far, and it might be important to determine the cost)

Best regards,
Andy

Didn't he? The thread's titled "Broken mirror on 10D". I guess we're all thoroughly conditioned to expect thread titles to be vague strings like "what'll this cost me?" or "Oops . . ." that we don't read them any more. It's not just here, either. I was on another board when the thread title asked which of two specified model motherboards the poster should get, and someone asked what two boards were under consideration.
