I wonder how many cameras showed up at the Canon & Nikon repair centers expecting warranty service?

Wow! Thank you very much for sharing all of those pictures and descriptions. What a treat to be able to actually see the damage instead of just reading about it.

It is such a small percent that didn't take heed to all the warnings and precautions that were posted every where. I'm sure There are more damage out there probably more to the rental line because they don't want to damage their own equipment.
