dan_vidal Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 OK, it looks like the flash lamp itself has burned out prematurely on my 580EX flash. How much and how long for a repair? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natureshots Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 No one can really answer how much until a Canon Repair Center has a chance to look at it; it might be some other issues too. Is it still under warranty? I had sent in a lens in for repair (Irvine, CA) and Canon was fairly fast. I think it took less than five working days for me to receive back my lens once I approved the repair. I just sent my 580EX in for repair for unrelated problem. If you're interested, send me and email and I'll give you a response on when I get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_vidal Posted December 4, 2005 Author Share Posted December 4, 2005 I think it is still under warranty. Something tells me though that the flash lamp isn't covered by it. I'm gonna hit up Canon on Monday and get it sent out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_vidal Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 Well Tuesday ... From what I gather it is still under warranty and they're willing to honor it. Just sent it FedEx overnight right now to NJ. Will keep a running log... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
