300d gone for repairs

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

Yesterday after work I dropped my broken 300d off to Diamonds Camera in Rundle Street. It’s now on it’s way to Canon for a check and quote on a fix.

If I don’t choose to go ahead with the fix, it’s still $60 for the quote, mmm. In the mean time I’ve been looking around an the options available, definitely some nice new cameras around.

Just have to keep waiting :-|
