So canon are fitting used shutters in new cameras well that's what I'm taking from you're above statement!

How many cameras have canon tested the shutters on 1,2,3,4,5 I'm sure if they make a claim that it was tested up to 200,000 they tested quite a number so why should they or almost all live up to this number.

Ok if canon think or know most camera shutters will fail before the 200,000 why print this number why not say 100,000 then when they fail it dozen't look so bad & yes reading through different forums there are lots of members posting where their cameras have failed well before 100,000

I can't post a link right now as I'm working from my iphone but google for the canon 1D MKII N white paper at the bottom of page 14 (from memory) it says tested to with stand 200,000 also there's a page on the camera on canon Uk site says the same

I'm calling CPS for an estimate this week my body is like new with the odd small mark on it 64k clicks out of 200k they rate on the camera.

I'd be happy to pay £188 for a shutter replacement on my 1D MKII N with 63K clicks on it. My estimate was £425 for shutter replacement. A complete shutter unit costs delivered for the states £126 if I thought I could fit it myself I'd do it!
