that sucks Vince, mine did the same thing earlier this year cost about 260 to fix it

Yes it does. At first I just figured my battery died, so I just popped in another one, then I realized what it was.
I was hoping it would be a little cheaper, but 260 really isn't a bad price for the repair. Well, at least the posters I sold today will cover the cost of the repair .

Did they replace your mirror box also when they replaced the shutter?

Hi
I need some specific 1DM2 advice. I am looking to use non ef lenses on my 1Dm2. I tried a non AF OM/EF adapter, but I gor "err 01". I emailed a AF confirm adapter seller on ebay who replied that his wouldn't work on my camera either.

Does anyone know where I can buy an OM/EF that works or is there "an adapter problem" with the 1DM2?

Thanks

That works a treat. Don't be afraid to attack the adapter with a dremel, it's dead easy!

Thanks Jarski great spot

Thanks Ross. I've been looking at the precision milled adapter for half an hour resisting the urge to sort it out with a pair of pliers. I don't have a dremel so I'll go to a local engineering works tomorrow and see if they can do it for me.

Another hockey season starts, love this camera.

Before I post to the main board and if anyone is looking, I have a 1D Mark II with 3101 actuations in mint condition for sale. Not a mark on it. Includes a new additional Canon battery still in box, hand strap and all items that came with it as new. Just back from Canon Irvine from calibration and sensor clean. $925 via Paypal e-check

Just got my 1D II in the mail! I'm absolutely ecstatic, the camera has heft, and the small jump in sensor size is definitely noticeable. My 28-75mm feels like the perfect lens on here, the FPS is amazing, and,,,,Aaaaah, I love it!

She's using a 40D, and this was shot with a 1D2 and a 200 f/2....I couldn't decide where to post it.....LOL.
Since this thread is kinda quiet today, figured I'd liven things up a little. Went for a walk after lunch today with little Miss second shooter.
