Colin-
Funny you should mention the IIIc- the shutter curtains for the c did dry
out and are usually trashed if not replaced. I had DAG do my IIIc- CLA,
shutter curtains- both at about $30 apiece, but done during a CLA, and
replacing the beamsplitter for the RF- about $250 USD plus shipping. Well
worth it if you plan to use the camera. If your VF/RF is okay, figure about
200USD plus shipping.
