    It is just the outer panel. Thanks though! At least I know now that it can be fixed for a small price.


    Now I'm going to mull over whether or not i should leave it or get it fixed.

    Unlike many Canon dSLRs, your 7D is a weather-sealed body (when used with a weather-sealed lens). The crack in the panel is a potential gap in that sealing, so if you shoot in inclement weather I'd strongly consider getting it replaced.

    Oh. Thank you for pointing this out to me. That didn't even occur to me. I will keep that in mind for future shooting until/if I get it fixed.

    One day, you will want to sell it, and then will have to get it fixed. Better to do it now. Did you buy it with a credit card? Some credit card companies have a warranty on things that were bought with the credit card, even dropping or losing it.


    Don't overlook this, check.
