10d sensor

[MIDNIGHTMANONE]

Hi All

while blowing my sensor on my 10d i noticed what appears to be a gouge in the center of my sensor.i have never clean it befor now so this is the first time i have
seen it. i took a picture of the sky and sure enough when i zoom it is vary noticible
i have never seen before now i think because all pictures where taken at sporting events.What i am wondering is if that can be fixed or if sensor needs to be replace
and what kind of cost it would take to get it fixed.

Any of you have any idea about cost or if it can be replaced at all?

Thanks
Rick

Take a picture of blue sky at F32, or as close to F32 as you can, and post the picture. Canon are the best people to tell you about replacement cost, they'll need to see it first.
