On top of that, most dealers with a serious problem, will not CLA the camera at the importer, but rather with a small technical workshop that gives dealer kickbacks. The prices of bodies is so artificially high that it doesn't pay to have the CLA as part of the dealer warranty, the dealers much prefer to give a refund than lose the 20% profit in repairs.

This is one of the unwritten rules of photography on the cheap, at least as I have practiced it. Except that now I've written it. > > > Doug Herr > Sacramento
