the 5D2 is assumed to be weather sealed. how did the ants get in?

Once they're all gone, stick a bird in there to get the grasshopper out.
Cats are good for dealing with birds, but you might want to consider a small one as, despite being a full-frame camera, it might be a bit tight in there.
Cats hate dogs...
Oh no! Hope they haven't built a nest in there!djmp said:nicku said:djmp said:Can anyone tell me how to remove ants from my 5D2?

Through the hinge on the battery compartment. They are now throughout the whole camera.

For sure, if you kill the ants in the camera, you will need to send it to Canon, perhaps best to do that anyhow even if you succeed in sending the ants packing just in case they've done some damage.briansquibb said:djmp said:Can anyone tell me how to remove ants from my 5D2?
Ant powder and a trip the Canon service centre afterwards ;D ;D ;D
