Would be nice if someone offered the seller something, even just a tub of board wax or one of those fancy towels. After all, he's the one that done the hard work. Then again.........im sure he's getting plenty of "attention" in his local........being a self confessed well groomed individual and...

OK, Everyone has their opinion. All I done was pass on information on a "possible" fault, in which I think I was right to do. If the Mods think it useless, feel free to delete the thread.

Hi, I'm sure you would have a different opinion if you happened to get a dodgy lens. One of the link I posted is someone gathering exactly that kind of information.

Hi, Thanks, Hashcake, It's not put me off getting the lens. I still really want one. Just if I am unlucky enough to get a fault, I would like to know Canon would be good enough to give, at least reduced, repair costs, as srichards said. If indeed it was due to faulty parts or design flaw...

Ok, no offence taken. I'm not sure on the persons end game, however i suspect it is to make Canon at least acknowledge the fault. Maybe Canon can identify a pattern, identify different materials used, different parts used???? And then possible issue a recall???? If it doesnt get reported...

Hi, Read some tips on the forum and got added the photo above. Thanks

Hi, I am a nubbie to photography and tp. I took this image while diving a few weeks ago. It was taken with a compact waterproof camera, which doesnt do RAW. The colours, shading, light is all wrong, even I can see that. There are also spots where the light has reflected of particles. I...
