Don't worry there are shops that open on 1st Jan.

okay i just called up Canon 5 minutes ago. The guy said that i dont need to produce a receipt if i wanna use my warranty. Once the online registration went thru fine, everything else will be covered in accordance. phew. im still trying to get a receipt from the seller though but he is not picking up hehe.

:bsmilie: Doubt that will pose any kind of problem. After all, there are shops are operates 365 days throughout the year.

:thumbsup: At least the warranty is valid, so there shouldn't be much of an issue.

 

[velasco]

okay can cause im so unsure bout all this warranty process. i read thru the posts here discussing on unfilled warranty and 97% of the people said an unfilled warranty is useless save you have the receipt. That makes perfect sense though since I can fake the date of purchase and register. But then I wonder what happened to people who bought it from someone else, got it as a present or won it at a lucky draw.

tomorrow im gonna start shooting with the 450D . As of now, im still afraid to lay my hands on it ehhee

Most probably you won't even want to stop once you started shooting with it. :bsmilie:

Agreed.

I went SSS for the past one month of school holidays. Shutter count just keep going up and I cannot control. Haha.

:bsmilie: Shutter replacement should be cheap for 450D, so no worries about hitting its lifespan.

My 450D barely hits 3K shutter.

 

[velasco]

ahaha weird. my viewfinder is very blurrish. hmm maybe it is like that?

Adjust the diopter. There's a small dial near the viewfinder, adjust it and it should be alright.

My 450D barely hits 3K shutter.

Mine is about 3.8k on a 2 month old baby. Haha.

[velasco]

Dear 450D users,

Do you experience on your camera that the LCD monitor will go blank when you pointed your lens down and on again when u pointed the lens UP?

Anyone have this problem with LCD monitor ??

Shouldn't have such a problem as long as there's nothing near the sensor below the viewfinder.
