Those who have had Canon calibrate their bodies/lenses...

->> I have asked Canon for more information and all I get is "send them in."

For those who've done this, can you please share how long it took to get your gear back? How much did it cost? And was it worth it?

->> I am a CPS member and I sent off my Mark IV and 70-200 to have them cleaned and calibrated. I sent them off and 3 business days later I got them back. I have the platnium service which get me faster service and 6 clean and checks a year. I think this is worth the $500.

Go here
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/professional/standard_display/CPS and choose the level of service that fits your needs. Gold members and above get two free clean and checks (adjusts). The discounts on one or two repairs per year generally cover the cost of membership.

->> Jeff,

I have noticed that my images are sharper with my 70-200 now. I would say the investment is worth it. You get 2 free clean and check with the gold and 6 with the platinum membership.
