-=5D CLASSIC admirers, assemble! (5)

All I'm trying to say - I can't use full screen on 500D which is identical to 60D to find out if human eye is in focus at shallow DoF. I need to zoom in, same as on 5D.

Guess my 5D needs to go back to Canon -- this can't be good.

Yikes! This looks like a shutter replacement

How bad do they hit you for a shutter replacement?

Current weather report

Nifty-Fifty at 2.5 and I over-sharpened it little-bit.

Is that really what it is? Shutter replacement? Eek.

Guess I shouldn't trust shutter count from people on eBay?

Wondering this as well. Anyone know or is it Canon's $200 flat repair fee?

Yeah but then again, they can fail at any time. I have a buddy on her second 5d Mk2. Her first failed after 5000 Shutter Acutations. But that was just bad luck. She was within warranty and got a brand new one.

First day with new 5D and 85 1.2L II. Taken in a rush, but some came out alright I think, please comment =). All taken at F/1.2, last one at ISO 1600 (pretty damn clean!).

Mums, tunnbrödsrulle...

I counter with a shot of my friends burgers. He's a chef that works at a top restaurant here in town.

Haha, yup I was surprised to see it there aswell. We were actually debating what yearmodel it was when I took the shot.

I believe it was a 2007.

Welp, the 5D is on its way back to Canon.

Going to get an exact shutter count from Canon when they receive it.

It is with a heavy heart I bid this wonderful thread goodbye. Just pulled the trigger on a refurb with an extra 10% off. I was about to purchase on fleabay for $2250 because it was going to only cost $90 less to go the refurb route, but $350 cheaper? I'll take that! Thanks for pointing out the 10% coupon guys; literally while I was at the bank switching money in accounts to purchase on eBay. The lady thought I was crazy coming right back in to transfer back. My 5D Classic and grip are off to the new owners and the 5D MKii is officially ordered. How can you even shake a stick at $1799 through the Canon refurb program? Talk about timing for them to run that.

PS: Sorry for all of the smiley faces, but can you tell I'm like a little kid? Ha!
