5D Mark II viewfinder display replacement

[dveraz22]

Would anyone know how much canon would charge to replace my viewfinder display?

Are you referring to the focus screen, or the electronic display?

The focus screen is end-user replaceable (Canon sells optional focus screens and you can put them in yourself.)

I don't know what Canon charges to replace the electronic display.  You'd need to contact them.

EDIT:  Nevermind... I just noticed your other post that it's the LED brightness issue -- not the focus screen.

Also, I still have a 5D II and I'm checking all the menus -- there is an adjustment for the rear LCD screen brightness, but I can't find one for the LEDs in the viewfinder.  I thought perhaps altering the LCD brightness might also affect the viewfinder, but as far as I can tell, the brightness in the viewfinder doesn't change regardless of what I do to the LCD brightness.
