Could someone have stolen my camera internal parts?

[Zane]

I sent my 6D in for repair of my HDMI jack through Best Buy where I bought it. It came back fast almost too fast(within a week) for being in Alaska(everythings slow shipped here). I checked my S/N on the camera before I accepted it.

Anyway once I got it home a few weeks later I noticed overnight battery drain and numerous things on my menu were different like timezone, high iso noise reduction and numerous other "auto" modes which I never use. I then found in the copywrite info someone elses name!!! You dont change that to test the HDMI jack if you change it do you? I dont thnk so.

Im wondering if they took my camera and put my external body back over it? Anybody hear of this happening out there What to do if this happened? I think the company doing repair is called Precision Camera as they did my previous cleaning.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks

What happened with the HDMI port? What kind of damage and what damaged it?

I guess its conceivable that if the damage was extensive the needed to install a new main chassis (or whatever its properly called ) from a parts body.

If its Precision Camera in Connecticut they are an authorized Canon repair facility.

The pins were bent in the port. Probably a replaced part I didnt get a break down of thr repair. Im not possitive Precision did the repair yet but did the last one when sent.. Canon repair has no record of my s/n being repaiered.

You shouldn't need to increment firmware. I suggest you send your camera in to Canon. They will check it all over, calibrate and install latest firmware.

I have used Square Trade with good success for "passive " items, MacBook and iPhone, but for precision items with moving parts I only use factory service.
