Disaster struck a few months ago when my 5D got wet in a shower. Firstly I never realised that the sealing on this model was so poor. The 5D isn't a cheap model, however I was wrong to think it is well sealed.
Took it in to Lehmanns at Stoke as I live quite near. When they got around to looking at it two weeks later they phoned me and told me that it was basically knackered due to internal corrosion. :C They said it was totaly 'unrepairable'
In the end I used Eurohitech, a small company trading that I searched out on the net. They said they could repair it and they did. Took them a few weeks to gather the parts and fix it. Happy with the job and not having to write-off a £1300 camera.
I just thought I'd give them a mention as I found it hard to find anyone that would do the repair apart from Lehmanns. :t:
