Lets make things clear, when I got the camera, it exceeded my expectations. During the first event I shot, the image quality was amazing and I did not notice any black dot problem. But after a 3 month pre-order, it\'s disappointing to get a 2700 dollar camera that creaked more than a 600 dollar XTi or 1100 dollar 40D. When I made the video, I was almost sure I just had a bad copy and wanted to have some evidence in case they asked what was wrong.
It didn\'t take a lot of pressure to get it to creak, even if I placed it on the table it would make that noise, although it was not as loud if I had the grip on it. I didn\'t expect this to be a widespread issue. Putting the video up here was not a question of Canon\'s QC, but just a way to ask others if they were experiencing a similar problem.

I worked hard to save up and pay for this camera, so who are you to say I don\'t deserve this camera. If the replacement camera comes and has the same problem then I\'ll send it back again and just get a 1D III. It shouldn\'t be my problem that a product doesn\'t work like it should.
