Anyone here has the chance to calibrate the cams locally? If so, how does it cost usuallly?

On web, people are talking about Vancam & Camtex, are they good?

    $1500 ..  for  5D mark II ???

Look4chrisng

Depend on what you do.  5DII is probably good for many many years.
Also, B&H photo have a $500 rebate on 5DII if you buy a high end printer at the same time.  Sell the printer, and you have a brand new 5DII for around $2000.

I will be upgrading to the 5DII after the 5DIII release and hoping the used price range ~ CAD1,800.

From the net, people are saying that the proposed 5D MKIII will be like a heavy armed "full frame" 7D + stronger sensor and it will be released as early as next February.

Don't bother to sent it to Canon. $290 mini to have anything done to it. Doesn't make any sense of and old camera.

Or just pay an extra $1500 to upgrade to Mark II to have AF fine turning.  Or I just wait until 5D Mark III (hope by the time the AF is usable.)

AF tuning is sooo nice.

Mine is only a 40D, it doesn't have the minor adjustment function...

Catpiano

Why don't you just adjust the AF tuning?

Most the time, just minor front focus or back focus, u can set the camera to ~ +5/-5 something like that ..


Since lens cal will be ~$150
