[QUOTE="Bun-Bun, post: 184995, member: 15747"] I have dealt with them in the past. Its a chain store and the tech is in the HQ in winnipeg. Anytime I bring anything in it's a $50 fee and has to be shipped to Winnipeg to be looked at to decide the course of action from there. Of course on warranty I wouldn't have to pay the $50 but they would still have to send it to Winnipeg meaning I would be without the camera for at least a week. The environment was a clients house. It was clean and relatively dust free. I made one lens change in the entire shoot. Then when I did my testing I made sure my lens was clean and yup there was dust. I use a hand "rocket" blower, blowing up into the camera (holding the camera upside down) sweeping across as I pump the blower. Did this a couple times testing in between until there was no more change in the dust. Now there is one spec in the middle and one in the upper right corner of the picture that looks more like a film then dust. The only reason I am thinking there is a problem is I have never had issues like this with any of my camera's (Konica Minolta 7D, Nikon D40x, Nikon D7000) or my dads cameras (Konica Minolta 7D, Nikon D70s, D200, D300). And I have less than 500 actuation's on the camera and at the time I started noticing spots I had only taken 100 pictures. To me that is unacceptable. It's a brand new camera. That said am I really going to gain anything by buying the online one? Or do they all have this issue? I read that the problem seems to go away after 3000 actuation's. [/QUOTE]
