GKPE 8, Yet more NZ ramblings from some flightless Kiwis.

For some reason, I suddenly feel like I don't have enough cameras......

I see a white lens

I wonder if anyone really is going to buy the lot.

And now.......my weekly photo spam.....

I used my camera today, first time in a few months but that's not the point.

anyway my work horse 24-105 F4 starting coming up with Error 01 and as it turns out it's a common fault with the lens.

I have had it since the 24-105 first came out and it's been a good lenses but a bit soft these days.

Apart from Canon, does anyone know where else one can take the lenses too?

Thanks

Thanks for that. I have sent them an email.

That's a nice series Scott.

Mark V, that post gives out a lot of personal info.

I agree with your comments ingeneral, they service and 'married' my 6D and 24-105. Took longer than they said but came out cheaper. I was happy with the workmanship and it helped the service dept recptionist is lovely as well!

thanks Mark for the comments. I remember years ago some people had problems with Canon repair agent. It sounds like they are better today. Hmm I'm confused now.

Hey Mark, just noticed that they did a reversal of the inspection fee? why was that?

I was just about to log it online and the cost for an inspection fee is $70.

It's just a charge to cover their initial inspection costs. If you don't go ahead with the repair, they are not out of pocket. If you go ahead, it forms part or all of the labour charge.

oh that's good to know. I will send it away tomorrow and how it goes.
