Hi guys,
Just to check if anyone encountered full internal body corrosion (PCB, Shutter, Sensor, Mirror etc) on a 5D2?
My trusty 6years old 5D2 died on top of HuangShan 2 weeks ago, was light rain + single digit temp.
After checking by Canon, I was being quoted 2.2k for spareparts excl other repair cost and GST.
So my question is that anyone encountered such corrosion issue.
I shoot under the rain for many years without issue, so it may be an accumulative effect of corrosion.
Or because my dry cabinet is too dry (35%) that may lead to instant corrosion the moment the weather sealing gave way.
If there any location/part of the camera that vulnerable to even light rain? (the gaps of buttons and screen behind?)
Please advise so that i can take more precaution as I intended to replace it with a 5D3.
Thanks all in advance
