Hey I came across this video of a Canon 10D and a 24-85mm and its an very well done annimation of how a the camera and lens are made. It made me appreciate just how complex that camera I pick up really is and also made me never want to have to take it apart! I have a lot more respect for the people that work at the Canon repair shop now... Anyways HERE is the video. Enjoy!:thumb

    I did, thanks :D

    Having taken my 300D apart once to replace the sensor filter, I already knew a bit of what's going on in there. Still quite amazing.

    It took me three hours and thirty minutes to do the IR-filter job. I don't know how fast repair technicians are required to work, but I'm sort of guessing I'd need lots more practise!
    Creativity's hard.

    I'd love to watch this thing but it won't load for me ... tried several times throughout the day. It gets hung up on Read farm4.static.flickr.com ne_nau.gif.

    +1

    There was a lot of time spent on that project. The model itself looks like it was designed using a program like Inventor, and then Imported into 3dsMax. Awesome job!
    I was perfectly fine with my camera until I found this place. :evil :dunno

    Thanks ... it is quite an amazing video ... it's hard to imagine people sitting down and designing all that complexity. It's a wonder that it all works so well, at least most of the time.
