Canon abandons loyal customers
I just found out that Canon will no longer repair many of my very expensive
lenses etc. They are "out of service life." Includes 17-35 f/2.8 L, 28-70 f/2.8 L, Extender 1.4x and 2.0x, 380 EX speedlight, and 15x45 IS binoculars. That's a total of about $4600 of equipment that they say is worthless. Most of my stuff I can still send to Canon, but they will all slowly fall off their list. Does Nikon do this to its customers? And can anyone suggest a place for repair of Canon products? -- Alan Justice http://home.earthlink.net/~wildlifepaparazzi/ |

Some of these lenses were very expensive when they were sold forty or fifty years ago, and the repairs were easy and reasonable in cost. OTOH, relatively few of my 450 Canon FX cameras or 700 Canon FL-mount lenses have even needed repair. A Google search should locate a good repair service. I'd recommend starting with KEH. |
