->> My original 1D finally died over the weekend after years of awesome service! Just wondering if anyone has ever had one repaired and been allowed to upgrade the sensor to a mark2, 8mpx? Is that possible? Ballpark cost if so?
Thanks in advance!

->> Not possible...different sensor, different processor...it's an entirely different camera.
Check the classifieds here - a decent Mark II usually goes for about $1,000-$1,000. |

->> Ah ha, thanks guys for the input....didnt think it was possible. Good thing that camera was a backup. Looks like it's a paper weight now, lol.
