afanifitafa Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 A couple of years ago I had my 10-22mm lens on my tripod-mounted camera, taking a panorama shot. As I was dismantling the setup, a gust of wind came up out of a canyon and flipped everything over. Luckily for me & my gear, the RRS rail took the force of the blow and slipped, absorbing most of the impact. However, the lens barrel was tweaked by pressure hitting the hood, and the lens flew apart into 3 pieces. I carefully scooped them up and sent them into Canon. Amazingly, there was not one scratch anywhere on any part of the lens, outside or in. Canon in Riverside charged me less than $100, including shipping, to put it all back together (including replacing some electronic parts) & return it to me. I'm still using the lens and it works perfectly, good as new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
