And it took me 9 copies of the 24-70II to find one that I felt was good enough. Most of the issue was the "clicking" sound when operating the zoom lens (btw, this is quiet compared to a couple that I received). And, of course, Nikon fanboys will point to the light leak issue with the Canon 5DIII. But, those are my only issue(s) with Canon. Otherwise, they have been remarkable, IMO.

I had a similar response to Dave when I saw that news link. Kind of a "here we go again" feel. Granted, we do not really know how significant of an issue this is.

I evaluated going with the D800 when I upgraded to the 5DIII. This was before any of the issues Dave mentioned. But I remember being concerned with the Lensrental data on average repair cost (Nikon is the highest; granted, Canon was 4th from the top) and days needed by Nikon to make a repair (Nikon was the second highest at 24 days, Canon at 5 days). Just sayin, in terms of standing behind their gear, if I was a working photography professional, combining that with the issues with the latest releases would give me at least some pause.
