The good news is I found my warranty which I couldn't for the longest time. I was producing diamonds out the ole sphincter for awhile.

It appears something is wrong with my lens. Two trips now and the pics are fuzzy. I did some tests today and they are failing.
Does this mean you wont be sending me my lens? :dunno:

I think the going rate for a 40D body is about $600 new. Haven't bought any recently but I thought thats what I was seeing since the 50 came out
Your right Bone, that could be what it is now. When it was new I think it was a little more.

Canon service is fast. They fixed it and put it in the mail yesterday. It is tracking to be to me tomorrow. I hope they are flying it in with all the flooding...

I paid 1599 for mine with a $250 kit lens included...but I was the first one around to have one so i paid the premium.
You think thats bad, I paid the same amount for the 20D package when it first came out, but like you I was one of the first. M-Ray just picked one up like new for $250 :bash:

:chuckle: Yeah I did! :chuckle: Shawn does this mean you won't be needing my camera anymore? I'll be by to pic it up I'll leave you a computer you can fix!!!
I think we will be making a road trip, I need to get up there and drop off some things for Pope as well.

I will probably ship mine Monday. I am hoping for a shoot this weekend. A few not so crisp shots are better than no shots.......
Hey Bone, have you figured out which way they are out of focus, + or -? You could always try adjusting your diopter to compensate for it, that might get it closer so you can then resharpen them with CS2/CS3?

Yeah, I forgot to tell you that I slipped when out shooting sheep last week with your camera. Do you want all the pieces or just the main part of the body?
Sweet! I just got me a newly serviced 40D out of this deal! :IBCOOL:

It was a deal on just the Camera body ... I bought it from a pro that used it very little as a back up because he had a 40D and a 5D. The camera had about 2k actuation's on it and looks brand new.

Can you tell how many actuations are on these 40D's
No, but Canon can as they have special software. People have created software to do this for the Rebels and I think some of the 1 series cameras... Some of the xxD series can be figured out but not the 40D.
