1D Mark 2n issue
Been having an odd issue with my camera over the past week. I shoot in manual but for some reason, when the light is not changing, I am getting blown out shots. I am shooting Manual and H mode in AI Servo and I shoot like this all the time, but the shots are coming out all over the spectrum of under exposed, properly exposed and over exposed. Is this a sign of the camera about to die or a failure? I have never had this issue before

Is this happening with more than one lense? We used to see this with lenses when the aperture mechanism got grit or something in it. It wouldn't move smoothly and exposures were wildly variable. With these modern digital cameras, you don't get to change the lens aperture by hand any more and actually SEE it open or close. I'd check that first.
If that's working ok, have the shutter checked. Curtain may not be moving smoothly and causing variable exposures. It's probably something mechanical though. If it was electronic, you'd probably be seeing errors in the LCD.

Not sure, out of my league there. Perhaps trying to see if there is any dirt or other stuff lodged in there and maybe cleaning it out with a blower. I leave the cleaning to the people who do that work.
