My Back-up 40D Died
Had my back-up camera die this weekend while waiting for my 7D to be repaired. Not unexpected however. The shutter on my 40D was sounding real funky about a year ago which led to my 7D upgrade. I had already replaced the shutter once. It completely crashed this weekend while taking some shorebird photos. Hoping to get my 7D back this week. Still waiting on the e-mail from Canon to say that it shipped. Not sure if I’ll put $216 into the old 40D or not to repair it.

Sorry about all the bad luck Tim, we really need to meet up sometime and shoot some birds.

You gotta have a backup camera body. $216 is a cheap way to get one.

Thanks Jim. I’m hoping it gets better one of these days.

I think that you’re right. I may just do that.
