  1. <p>Send it to canon, I suspect a flexible wire inside snapped due to zooming action and old age, Causing the aperture mechanism to malfunction, Which then results in error 01 message on the lcd screen.</p>

    <p>Happened to me on my 24-105. A common problem with these lenses.</p>

  2. <p>Hi , I would like to express how pleased I am on the firmware 1.0.9. Before , I find the ALO unusable , The picture quality when ALO was used on the old firmware is ugly. But with the new firmware , The pictures are really nice . I highly recommend you to upgrade to this new firmware, It's worth it.<br>

    I like it alot when canon have image quality related firmware update. 2 thumbs up for Canon.</p>

    <p>Oh wait, there is also a new firmware for the 7d.</p>

  3. <p>Hi Janice,</p>

    <p>Th lcd panel itself is located behind a plastic glass , If the panel is broken , It would show black ink-like image even when the camera is not on.</p>

    <p>But if the outer glass cracked it would be relatively easy to replace and you can find replacement on ebay.<br>

    I already found one.<br>

  4. <p>The 60d have fast AF, But when I tried BIF and sports with it, Set the af to ai servo and all af points activated, I feel that the 9 point Af is lacking. So during that time I was thinking of buying a 7d :).</p>

    <p>Other than that, The 60d is a great camera on it's own, Especially when the need for the swivel screen arises.</p>

  5. <p>My own experience with 18-55 IS is that it is sharp at close distance , But becomes considerably softer when being focused at infinity distance, Therefore, Not so good as a landscape lens. I have this theory that canon designed it that way , So that it will have good ratings when reviewed , But in real life use It is not as sharp as the reviews would tell you.</p>

    <p>Unfortunately for you, $300- is way below the price range of good landscape lenses.</p>
