"The recall is detailed in a letter sent by Canon to UK dealers which is circulating on the internet. Commenting on the letter a Canon UK spokeswoman confirmed to Amateur Photographer: 'I have seen the [Internet] link to the letter. We think it is genuine… basically there will be an official announcement out on Wednesday (Oct. 31) regarding this.' http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk …internet_news_152434.html

Hahahaha, compensation? You MIGHT get a "sorry" at most, and that is doubtful. And to me, no difference if one has taken 2K shots or 50K shots, both have been inconvenienced and neither deserves more than the other. Gear List

Do we have a choice regarding the enitre sub mirror being replaced? Or just the mirror being adjusted? I don't feel comfortable with Canon just doing an adjustment but, rather the sub mirror assembly being replaced. What do you guys think? Thanks.

That's sort of like asking do I get to choose a refund or exchange. The answer is no, Canon will decide what's best for you. Kenny A. Chaffin

Canon replaced the entire shutter assembly in my 1DsMKIII after only 2300 shutter actuations, and it's been perfect. These guys seem to know what they're doing. I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!
