Nothing dropped or abnormal happened -- just had my camera hanging on my Black Rapid strap, just like what I've been doing with my 5D2 forever. The rubber material around the joystick looks defective. Just beware in case this defect is common to this batch of 5D3s.

Canon will take care of you. But sorry to hear that you're dealing with this on a new camera. I hope it "gets well" soon!

I've seen a few others online so it's not so uncommon unfortunately. Better to happen under warranty than later, I guess. 5D Mark III, 6D, EOS-M 22mm f/2 | 24-70mm f/2.8L II | 50mm f1.4 | 100L | 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II | Rokinon 8mm Fisheye

Bryan Thanks Bryan -- not too worried, it's just a little hassle but I'm confident in either Beach or Canon taking care of the issue. 5D Mark III, 6D, EOS-M 22mm f/2 | 24-70mm f/2.8L II | 50mm f1.4 | 100L | 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II | Rokinon 8mm Fisheye
