That would require an internal acknowledgment from canon in mid September in order to implement changes into production by October 1st. Does that sound reasonable? I would hate to buy a "new" camera only to find out needs to go in for repair! Comments? Not only that, it typically takes 4 weeks for product to ship from Japan/Asia via boat. Add a couple of days to hit distribution centers, then from there they need to be shipped to stores. I would venture to say to wait as we are <4 weeks the unconfirmed "all clear" date. The math just does not add up. - Phil

Only you can make the decision to buy it Nick, UK

Oct 31, 2007 19:28 | #973 When I told the rep that I was close to the Jamesburg facility, he said I could just bring it in, but they would probably have to keep it for a long time, which he then quickly corrected to a few weeks. So, I guess if I were willing to do without the camera for that period of time, there is no "waiting line" necessary; they will just do the repair as soon as they are ready to if it's there.

Yes. But many owners may not receive the happy news, nor will they suspect their camera isn't working properly in the first place... EOS-1D X Mark II| EOS 5D Mark IV | EOS 80D | EOS-1V HS
