No, it can not possibly be the shutter.......Canon have just upgraded it to 400,000 clicks life expectancy (with confidence level of 5%)

Just kidding, that does look like the shutter is gone. The white stripe phenomenon is not lens dependent, but it may change with shutter speed. Suggest to your friend not to use the camera until the Canon service folks have a chance to take a look. A broken/displaced shutter blade may scratch the sensor.

Thanks Peter... I suspected that it's the shutter as well since my 1ds2 had the same thing replaced. But I was stumped with it didn't show with the long lens...

yeah I told him not to use it

Yeah, that sure looks like it. Fortunately it's a relatively easy and cheap repair.
