Maybe worth the fix?Well, I want a 300 2.8, but that would also be an example of a bad financial decision...

The nifty fifty (Canon version at least) has a very recessed front element. Especially with the hood you may find that you don't need it. It is my only lens that I do not use a UV filter on.

That doesn't seem too bad for the price of a 40D. I wanna get one, this Rebel is making me seem kinda puny...i joined cb7tuner probably 3 years ago and never posted...kinda the same deal
also since theyre selling it broken "after 12 years of good service," it makes you wonder why they're not fixing it. then again, i know one dude who got a broken 40d for like $200, and canon fixed it for about $250. maybe they think it'll cost more to fix than its worth?
That's the non-IS version that is no longer made. Out of production normally means Canon won't even touch it.i joined cb7tuner probably 3 years ago and never posted...kinda the same deal

You can trade in any DSLR + $650 or so and get a 50D refurb from Canon.That doesn't seem too bad for the price of a 40D. I wanna get one, this Rebel is making me seem kinda puny...
