Dear All,
I have a 30D which I use with Sandisk Extreme III 4GB CF cards. Completely out of the blue it will freeze displaying the "ERR CF". Taking the card out turning the camera off, removing batteries etc usually sorts the problem, untiL iput a card back in. Either the same or different one. Same "err CF" comes up. Not sure whats going on. Wrote to a friend who reviews cameras, who replied saying this was a known fault on the 30D and was where the pins attach to the circuit board. I could get it repaired for £150! my first thoguht was thats a third to half of another camera body.
So I guess my question is are, has anyone else herd or experienced this fault?
Also what experience has anyone had of the Canon repair service? I remember reading aobut it in a back issue of Eos Magazine.
Many thanks
Regards
Chris
