A bit of goodish news

The 100-400 L lens is on its way back. I got a very polite email from Canon Repair AU.
What annoys me about this, is yes, I bought the lens 'used' (previous owner bought to photography his sons' soccer game, and after 6 months, sold it as he had no more use for it) it wasn't covered by warranty, even though the problem with it is a known issue, but not so wide spread that Canon issued a recall or would fix it gratis.
Oh well, even with the repair (I got an estimate) the lens cost me less than getting it brand new.
