Has ANYONE gone the squaretrade route to warranty their Canon lenses? I've used my google-fu skills, and there are VERY few threads concerning extended Canon lens warranties.

In particular, has anyone had to make a claim, and did it end up going to a Canon authorized repair shop? Do they only cover MAJOR issues (complete AF failure, errors, etc), or do they cover the more mundane (element slightly out of alignment from repeated barrel zoom use, etc) as well?

I just got a new 70-200mm f/4 IS, and I'm seriously considering a 3-year $1200 warranty with accidental damage/handling for $150 (or without ADH for $100).

TIA

I figured no one would respond. The last half-dozen ST-based threads have all been barren. Well, for anyone who stumbles in here looking for information, this is the response I received from Squaretrade:

The specific issue that you have pointed towards would definitely be covered under the SquareTrade warranty since this points towards an item not working as it should.
