EOS Bodies - For Stills / Camera Servicing

« on: November 15, 2012, 01:16:16 AM »

I am in a bit of a pickle, for the last 18months I have been living and working in Uganda, but am from the UK. its very very very dusty here, and my camera is getting a little dirty (tho not the sensor thankfully) I have also been having the old "Cannot Communicate with Battery Error" every now and again which seems to be a common issue with the 7D. My girlfriends going back to the UK for about 3 weeks over christmas and was tempted to send my camera with her to get it services, my only issue is as much as i look after it, keep it in pelican cases and try and keep it away from the dust, its soo SOOO SOOOOOO dusty here I feel it might just go back to the point it was when i sent it in, in a short period of time. I will be moving back sadly in Sept 13, so the real question is should I wait till then or would it be a good idea to get it done before.

The Cannot connect to battery error has disappeared now, for the second time so thats not causing a issue any more.

also, does any one know any good value service centres in the UK where I should send it to?

I hope this post made sense!

Software & Accessories / Eye-Fi Card on 7D

« on: November 10, 2012, 02:02:37 PM »

Hey Guys,

I am sure that this has already been asked about probally 200x, but am new here, not seen it before so thought I would ask anyway.

Has any one got any experience with a Eye-Fi Card and a CF-SDHC Converter, anyone managed to get it working? THey say its not supported on the Eye-Fi Website, I wondered if any one had any experience with it? is it worth it?

Many Thanks
Rich
