Canon Recalls 1D, 1Ds Mk III Cameras Due To Lube Leakage
 

Canon has issued a partial recall for its full-frame 1D and 1Ds Mk III cameras. Apparently, Canon slopped a little too much oil into the cameras' mirror boxes, causing photo-ruining lubricant splatters on their low-pass filters. SEND'EM BACK.

this is odd. Though they are the latest releases of the 1D series, these cameras have been out for quite some time. Either they're just leaking from age and Canon is offering a recall for a free fix or something is up.
