Hi Guys. I just couriered the body back to the shop. They called me an hour later after trying their own lens on it and confirmed that the camera is faulty. Now the wait begins for warranty repair. Thanks for all your help.

In the Dutch example I posted the camera eventually was returned and got replaced immediately under warranty. I'd try and give 'em a call, as wickidwombat suggests, because if you pay 3K+ for a camera you shouldn't have to wait for weeks for it... hope it works out for you :)
