I had damage done before. Send it back. The camera will come back as new. If its the Canon logo they will replace the top cover.
I don\'t think its as simple as replacing the top cover. The 1D MKIII camera body
is one piece magnisium alloy. They have to gut everything out of my camera and insert it back to an new shell? I doubt it. What i suspect they will do is just
offer to replace it with a clean refurb or a new one with a serial number close or newer. They\'ll take mine and resell it as a refurb.
I just got mine adjusted and tweeked to where i want it and its perfect. Just don\'t want to get a 1D MKIII with AF problems.
Yes the body is a one piece magnesium alloy. But there is a top cover. Look at the lines on your 1D III you will see a seem that all the way around the top section. That is replaceable. I had mine replaced on my mark II. Mark III is almost the same.
Wow that would be soo cool if thats all it is. Don\'t have my 1D with me at the moment. Its sitting inside a UPS truck waiting for Canon Service to re-open after the 4th of july holiday. . And also i hope they can fix the problem why the camera was there in the first place before they scratched it.
