If you stay near the coast where the environment is humid (and corrosive), 18200 is a lot, especially for 3-4 year old camera.

It looks like it's jammed.
One of the blades is even sticking out.

OMG - I didn't see this until now!
40D maybe? It's not a heck of a lot more, and looks like it's only getting cheaper.
D700 maybe?
It is for someone in SA
- 400D: R6,399.00, 450D: R8,299.00, 40D: R11,999.00 (body only SA Camera Prices)koffiejunkie

40D body from B&H, shipping with UPS included for $1058.45 = R8,288.66
A good deal, even at the horrific exchange rate.

the 40d is lovely but i just need a replacement really
but i'm considering the 40d (it's just so sexy
)
lol at d700, koffiejunkie
if i bought that i would need to make money with it (it's not a hobby camera for me)
