I'm a little irritated with Canon right now in that - last summer in Chicago during a shoot the mirror fell out of place, which was apparently an "unofficial recall" on the original 5D. Now the shutter release button has broken (also mid shoot) and it's a $200 repair. I've been on and off the phone trying to get the price reduced, but Canon won't budge.
They have however, offered me, as a loyal customer, a discounted price of $1,087 with free shipping on a refurbished EOS 7D. I already went ahead and upgraded to the 5D markii this summer, and my company is growing enough (and after these two snafus) that I do want to have two cameras.
So do I throw down and additional $1,087 for a refurbished 7D with a 90 day warranty after my original 5D gave me so many problems - or just pay the $200 to get the 5D fixed. I guess what I'm asking is, is this really a deal????
