Canon 1D Mark IV Warning
Posted: Wed Jan 01, 2014 2:44 am
Two weeks ago my wife's Canon Mark IV had the shutter shatter at about 90K actuations. Thought it was a fluke.
Just got back from Bosque where both my Canon Mark IV bodies suffered shutter shatter at about 90K actuations.
So, looks like that is about the life of the shutter. We both shoot mostly BIF in high speed frame rate mostly, not shutter friendly.
Note: Canon Irvine has software that reads instantly the shutter actuations. About $400 to redo the shutter with CPS.
