Jul 09, 2018 12:21 | #1 Hello I have a Canon 1DX mark 1 and here is my problem the plastic piece directly above the mirror came down, but I was able to push it right back on, I am scared that this might happen again doing a wedding or shooting event.

joeseph "smells like turd"  More info | Jul 11, 2018 02:15 | #3 Sounds like the focussing screen... some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", 1D MK II converted for IR, and now an M5

Jul 15, 2018 14:46 | #4 Yup that is what it is... (the focus screen) So mine just pop out and it pop right back in, so should I be concerned about it coming down again? Canon EOS R EF 70-200 L 2.8 L 24-70 2.8L II Canon Pixma PRO-1 3 Canon 600EX-RT Speedlites

apersson850 Cream of the Crop More info | Jul 17, 2018 13:00 | #9 The same thing actually happened to me today. I was changing lens on my 1DX Mark II, when I accidentially grabbed the camera in a way which caused the focusing screen holder to pop open. Anders

Jul 17, 2018 17:11 | #10 What I did was got on Youtube and watched a few videos on it, I reopened it and inspected carefully and seen to be fine. I think changes lens to fast Canon EOS R EF 70-200 L 2.8 L 24-70 2.8L II Canon Pixma PRO-1 3 Canon 600EX-RT Speedlites

joeseph "smells like turd" More info | Jul 18, 2018 16:35 | #12 agree... just another thought, has the OP been using a 50mm f/1.8 mk II? ive read of instances where the back baffle on the lens moves outwards in some cases jamming the lens on the camera. some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", 1D MK II converted for IR, and now an M5
