Do you think that the new 5D Mark III's will be recalled?

what the direct link to the Canon press release/response page so we can keep a look out for their response? When do you think they'll give us an update?

OK, maybe I'm just a bit dense, but I really don't understand how anyone can imagine that something that is essentially a non-issue would justify a recall.

Maybe it's just public perception. If a large enough group of people thinks it needs a recall, Canon would recall. Whether or not it really needs a recall in reality.

I don't understand, it is essentially an issue. People who shoot in harsh light or use the LCD back light frequently can have a blemish in their usage of this camera.

It's an issue that needs to be resolved and as it's a hardware problem, they may need to recall the first batch. Remember Canon hopefully will sell hundreds of thousands of these over 3-4 years so if it is a problem that would affect future sales in any way then it will be very worthwhile to replace the first batch.

No I don't think there will be a recall.  All they have to do is issue a new firmware and make it so that when the shutter is pressed the backlight turns off, problem solved.
