I cannot be more serious.

Bl**dy Canon QC is in the PITS. And so is CSC.

My camera spent more than a month at CSC and I had to make 5 visits there.

After all this while, the AF is still not fully functional. A number of AF points are either consistently unstable (the same points are inconsistent for ALL my lenses) or consistently front-focusing.

What kind of s**t technical work is this?

Canon owes me a working 7D. Yes, I've paid for a working camera and DEMAND that.

Either they give me a brand new 7D from the latest batch or exchange my awful 7D for lenses+camera of equivalent value.

I will have ditched them if I have the money.

If they cannot even get me a fully working 7D, how confident are we of their 1D4? I suggest everyone stay clear of Canon c**p until they have improved on their QC.

i remember i saw the notice at csc stating 11/12/2009 is their DND, so i think they will close early, hence very unlikely anyone of us will recieve calls from them to collect the set tomorrow.

i think you should feedback to them through email or what not channels
don't think the CEO way up there is aware of this

hey doodah, did u DEMAND from them to get u new set if they can't solve your problem because one month is a very long time? those ppl there i heard need some pushing. 1 month is ridiculous. if can't solve, den 1 to 1 exchange for a brand new set. CSC reminds me of SAF. hahaha! =x

So far I only hear 2 people complain. I think you are just so lucky Tried a few 7Ds during the Canon Workshop they all give tag sharp images consistently....didn't have a chance to try AI-Servo though.

no problem, but i think you better call them to check what time they close tomorrow.

I doubt the CEO cares about 1 or 2 small fry complaining, while thousands are singing praises...:bsmilie:
