There are days I really love my missus...
![]() After contacting a Canon repair centre I discovered that it was going to cost £165 plus shipping for a fixed price repair to my 10D. Faced with the prospect of shelling out almost £200 on a camera body that only cost me that much in the first place (second hand of course) I was wandering around the house feeling suitably sorry for myself. My dear wife insisted that rather than spend more money on repairing an old camera I should just go out and buy myself a new one. After reluctantly allowing myself to be persuaded I placed an order for a brand new EOS 40D which I expect to be picking up later today!! I think I had better start planning now for the next wedding anniversary, birthday, next year's valentines day and so on. I have some serious payback to earn! In the interim I get a nice new camera to play with!

Re: Goodbye 10D...
Nice one! It's a great camera, hope you enjoy it. Now take your wife out for a nice meal, with flowers and chocolates and a nice bottle of wine
