The Light Leak Issue
ramon123:
Are the new 5D Mark III's being recalled, meaning are they asking for everyone to bring back their newly bought units and either get a refund or credit for the fixed model in a few months?
te4o:
As often this forum is far too quick: there seem to be thousands of us doing every new hard/software test immediately and spreading the info minutes later: I find this is great!
A company cannot compete with this speed especially if it is making non-vitally relevant products (no life danger from a light leak there). I expect weeks and months until we know if the cameras will be recalled and what will be done to them and where.
My 5D3 arrived on Friday and no one has phoned me over the weekend to let me know Canon needs it back on Monday. And, yes it has the light leak issue as my old 40D without me noticing.

Not sure they determined the action to take yet. Bets is to register like someone else mentionned.

Yep, register and wait. I am curious to see what they say officially. Its funny because my 5D2 does the EXACT SAME THING.
