|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Problems with MarkIIn Worth Canoy, Photographer High Point | NC | USA | Posted: 9:48 AM on 09.14.07 ->> Anyone ever seen this white line problem? Contacted Canon, waiting to hear back. You can see at: http://www.sportsshooter.com/worth/ugh/  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I have had frames look exactly like that with film cameras shooting chrome and with a digital camera. Brian is correct. You will need a new shutter. A piece of the shutter does not close fast enough (because it is broken)- thus severely over exposing a part of the frame- making it go white.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

See how it's bright at one side of the frame (I know the image is vertical) and non-existent at the other side? That's indicative of a faulty shutter.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

How old is your MkIIIn? CPS replaced my shutter for free under warranty back in June as it was less than one year old. Only had 29K actuations on it, too.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I figured it was time for a blow out ). Good thing the Astros are in last place right now. I had to dig out my old 1D for last nights game. It was like going back in time to 2003! Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to find a Mark IIN and the Mark III is a question mark right now, so once the shutter is replaced I'll probably get a few more miles out of the Mark II.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The reason you can see that link anymore, it because the member who posted it is no longer a member. It's a broken link.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I did not realize this was from 2007. I have been reading through many posts when I have spare time. There is a lot of helpful information here.
