February 19th, 2007 23:15 in Photography, Travel by JonWhile spending a few days away in Norfolk last week with Church, my trusty Canon EOS 350D broke! I changed over a memory card only to see a message saying “error cf”, when I looked inside the compact-flash unit one of the connector pins had bent over, making the camera unusable!
Thankfully it’s less than 12 months old and I took out an extra three-year warranty and accidental damage cover, so it’s currently away for repair (which could take anything up to a month!)
While I was away I did manage to use Rach’s Canon EOS 400D to grab a few shots (which are now on flickr).

Ah – i see what your problem was – you had a Canon 305d – the geniune model is a 350d – i guess yours was a cheap taiwanese immitation prone to break within the first 12months – always read the label, now please wash your hands!

Trust you to pick up on my *fake* model… I’ve now purchased the legitimate model… well not really, I’ve just corrected the type-o

Ahh I too had that problem with mine, about 4 hours after buying it my glorious friend cunni worked his magic on it and bent a pin. Took it back the next day and took out some extra “cunni” insurance for it. Apparently it is a fault with the design of CF cards…
