One quote £120 another from a recommended canon dealer £229 minimum to fix switch clean lens in and out and recalibrate lens tech will say how much on top this will cost, canon takes two days to assess they had it 10am yesterday so I guess sometime thursday

One canon dealer wants £229 minimum and possibly more to replace switch calibrate and clean. Canon uk are doing it for £138, £20 switch hours labour and vat.

If you go through a dealer, you should expect some markup for services rendered.  The dealer has to pack it up, generate paperwork, pay for shipping, etc.

No canon £138 not £229 like the other one that was there final quote £138
