My 5d mk 3 finally crossed the 150 000 cycle mark on its shutter actuations so i sent it off to canon s irvine service center for replacement.
Canon 5d mark ii shutter replacement price.
While the mark iii is a fabulous camera that largely mitigates the autofocus.
How does it compare.
Filmed with panasonic lumix fz200.
My monument valley video utilized over 20 000 time lapse clicks a large portion of my overall count.
So the cost for that video was 40 assuming the shutter needs replaced at 200k.
But people also go past 60 000 miles on their car without replacing the timing belt.
Canon tells me that the cost for a shutter replacement is approximately 400.
Just stick a fingernail in there and pull them all.
Canon 5d mark ii vs canon 5d mark iii.
They did a count on the shutter and it had 427 000 clicks.
The canon 5d mark ii parts catalog google can dig it up is handy to refer to while going through this guide.
They say the shutter should last to about 150 000 clicks so i just had them replace the shutter as well as i felt it be going soon anyway.
