Another service notice - 1Ds and MkIII

Want to turn your image into an oil painting?

Sort of?

Canon has issued a service notice for the EOS-1D and the EOS-1Ds Mark III.

The story is that the cameras' mirror box has the potential to leak lubricant -- causing the excess oil to end up on the surface of the low pass filter. That is probably regarded as not being a good thing.

Engadget carry a story on this, and refer to further details on the Adorama site, which includes the text of the service announcement from Canon.
