Is FoCal worth ~$150?

[Canon1]

I sent it in to canon and they "fixed" it. When I got it back, I ran the test again, and Canon had done absolutely nothing to fix the actual problem. So I sent it back, this time with all the FoCal printouts. A few days later my camera came back with some hardware work and it was fixed.

Yikes! Some service huh? I hope they did not charge you for the first "fix".

No charge. I was several months outside of warranty too... So kudos to canon.
