[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 229375, member: 3903"] I don't see any disadvantage Glenn. Yet some people say it's not a "pro" body, as you found out the hard way, the magnesium "armour" thing is not that valuable with the 800. The huge advantage you'd see with the 600 is that most the controls are identical to the 7000, the exception being they reversed the + - buttons for review. Second advantage being the price of the refurbished 600, and the quiet mode which I really enjoy for it's quietness and extra gained sharpness since it eliminate a bit of mirror slap that can cause a tiny bit of motion blur up to 1/125s. Go to a store, bring a lens and a card and shoot a few frames. Then go home a look at the results. Then, torture yourself for a few days or weeks and then go and spend money :) In the meantime, maybe you can get your 800E back for a low repair fee ( I sure hope so for you). [/QUOTE]
