• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Today my 5D2 started over exposing quite consistently at +7 when using the view fiender. Live view works perfectly fine and the over exposure is the same no matter what setting the camera is in. Given this I assume the light meter has packed in our something has gotten dislodged in there since it can tell the difference between light and dark. It is however completely wrong. I've found some references to this fenomenen on the Internet but only one who has had it fixed (shutter assembly). Any ideas what this might cost as I imagine it'll be a canon repair centre fix. Also since I'm not a cps member does it make more sense to contact a third party repair centre hoping it'll be cheaper given the age of the camera?
