Brand new Canon 5d mark ii has dust inside of the LCD screen.. !!!

Hello guys. I just received Canon 5d mark ii + 24-105mm lens kit in the mail couple of days ago. It's an amazing camera that will help to improve my work. I didn't want to use the camera until I received the screen protector and the UV filter to make sure that the camera is well protected. (My previous SLR ended up having so many scratches on the LCD screen)
So today I received the screen protector. I was cleaning the Lcd screen to install the protector and I realized that there is a dust inside of the LCD screen. I didn't even use the camera more than to see if it functions right. It's totally visible.
I was wondering if anyone had this problem with their brand new camera ?!?!
I know there is an option to exchange the camera since it's in the return/exchange period but I really don't have time for this. I have photo shoots coming up and I really can't be without my camera more than couple of days. Unfortunately they don't have the kit in any of Bestbuy location in Los Angeles area that I can go in and exchange. They will ask me to return the camera kit to a Bestbuy location and wait for them to credit my Bestbuy card (which will take 3-4 days - and i don't have enough credit limit to buy another one right away and be patient for them to give me my money back ) and replace an order online again.
Any advice appreciated...
Thanks

First of all. Thank you for your reply. I actually realized couple of other things that made me suspicios that this camera was used before. Of course i might be wrong however - the package shipped from Bestbuy Return center + loose diopter adjuster knob before than even touching it + having dust inside the lcd screen + hair and dust inside the lens - made me really uncomfortable keeping this camera.
Don't get me wrong, I love Best Buy. I've been shopping from Best Buy for years. I have been purchasing many things every year and I really do trust them. That's the reason why i didn't mind to have Greek Squad 3 years extended waranty package with my purchase. However spending almost $3500 for a top of the line camera and not having it flawless from the first day made me a little disappointed. That's all..
I will be going to Best Buy later today and return the camera. I am just hoping that they can refund the money to my card in couple of days so i can place an order for a new one. Even better if i can return the camera and they can place an order from the store for me..
Thank you so much for your reply again...

Lightroom does not seem to recognize the files taken with my brand new Canon 7D mark ii

I am trying to download pictures I just took on my new Canon 7D mark ii camera and Lightroom is saying it can't preview the files. What do I do?? Can Lightroom not read the raw files from this camera or am I missing something?? Help!

Native Lightroom support for the D750 was added in the Lightroom 5.7 update released this evening.

Brand new hard drive and still can't get past the gray screen

i was having problems with my mac last night going to the gray screen, sometimes i'd get the folder with the question mark. i looked up for solutions and i tried every one i could find short of reformatting the hard drive. nothing worked, getting the start-up disk causes the mac to freeze on the screen with the picture of a disk and an arrow after i press the arrow to go into disk utilities. i took it to the apple store, which i wasn't really happy with my service there- i was called up immediately but then was never able to explain what was happening to the guy he just plugged in the computer, went back to helping someone else and periodically looked at my screen. i understand that they probably take care of multiple people at once so they don't get complaints about wait times, but i don't think i was really helped at all, he just ended up saying that i needed a new hard drive and if i knew how to put one in i was better off doing it myself then sent me on my way. well i bought a new hard drive and upon installing it and putting in the mac os x disk it still freezes and no solution has worked yet.

So all you need then is to know how to format the drive and install Snow Leopard.

How can i find the mac address of a brand new iphone 5 since i can't get to the settings screen untill it's signed onto the web

I have a brand new iphone. my home wifi router has a mac filter. I can't use my phone until the wifi is set up but i cant set up my phone until it connects to the internet. is there a way to find the mac addreess without getting to the settings menu?

It's not on the box.
Try turning off Mac filtering temporarily on your router, finish the setup, then turn it back on. Or use another WiFi hotspot, such as an Apple store or a carrier's store. Or McDonalds. Or Starbucks.

Brand new Ipod touch 2nd G has grey line near the bottom of the screen?

Does anybody know why my ipod touch has a grey line just below the last line of apps? Should I take it in? What should I do? I have already restored it.

How do I take it back? I bought it off amazon, will the apple store exchange it? Do I need to arrange somthing?

My macbook air has a crack on the LCD screen.

Is it just me or do they break really easily. If i take it to the apple store can they repair it?

Not so, many of the Apple Stores do in-house LCD's. When my MBA's screen developed a bright spot, I dropped it off and had it back with a new LCD in less than four hours.
Having said that, just because it cracked, doesn't mean they'll fix it for you for free.

When will Lr 5 support the new Canon 7D Mark II?

Just got the Canon 7D Mark II today!!! So far I am very impressed with it but I shot everything in RAW. I guess will have to use the Canon software to convert the files. I don't like that software so I'm hoping that Adobe has an update soon!

Keith I have read the above messages and I didn't find that anyone, using your words, presented: "always someone else's fault... attitude that frequently pervades these threads".
I also own the new Canon 7D Mark II. I totally forgot the camera raw lag time for new cameras. It has been years since I bought a camera when it first came out. So in my mind not thinking about the converter available lag time is a reasonable lapse. I admit it is my issue and Canon's and not Adobe. My issue because I forgot about the lag time and didn't even think about the issue. If you prefer, you can say that I am an old lady so no wonder she forgot she is just an old lady.
Where the actual problem comes from camera manufactures, not Adobe. They should have the software available to Adobe and other software manufacturers that work with the CR file prior to the deployment of the camera. They are making good money on the cameras. I would think they would want the whole package available at one time from shutter release to picture release. Maybe someone can explain why camera manufacturers don't release their file format 3 months ahead of the release for purchase of new cameras. That would allow software manufacturers to prepare the software so that it is available when the camera is ready. That would avoid discussions such as this one.
Yes I have already started shooting both Raw and JPEGs, before I read the above suggestion. Yes, I am waiting on Adobe to come out with the needed update. Yes, I take responsibility for getting caught with my software down to my ankles.

My iphone 4S has simply frozen on the home screen. Is there a quick fix????

My iPhone 4S (brand new) operational for 24 hours has simply frozen at the "slide to open" home screen and I can't slide the touchscreen. Is there a quick fix?? I am isolated.

Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo then release. This is similar to a computer restart.

Hi, I godt 2 Questions: 1) My Adobe PhotoShop Elements 10.0 for MAC cannot read the RAW files taken with the new Canon 7D Mark II camera. 2) My Photoshop Elements has changed from the danish language to german language, how do I put this back ?

I tested my new Canon 5D Mark iii with my 85 1.2 L lens. The images look terrible! What gives?

I just purchased a new Canon 5D Mark iii body. It is replacing my 1Ds Mark ii. I tested it with my 85 1.2 L series lens. I took the RAW images into Capture One 7 to look at them. I was highly disturbed at what I saw. The quality was no where near my Canon 1Ds Mark ii. The images seemed somewhat soft even after applying a consderable amount of sharpening. They also looked flat and lifeless, even after pumping the contrast and adding Clarity. All in all they looked terrible! I must have something wrong, as I have read countless times that the new chip gives incredible results.
When first attempting to set up my camera I set it to Adobe RGB and for RAW images only. I noticed that you seemed forced into deciding on a specific "Picture Style". I left it on the default settting of "Standard". Should that effect my RAW files, or is that bypassed altogether when shooting RAW? I noticed that in "Standard" mode that some in camera sharpening was applied to the files. Is that my problem? Should that be turned down to zero, as I would normally do all my sharpening afterward either in Capture One 7 or other software. I shot all my test images with fast shutter speeds so that is not the issue. This lens is in perfect condition and has always produced incredibly sharp contrasty images. What on earth could be wrong? Any suggestions? I am a professional shooter for the last 20 years, so this is really perplexing me! Help!!!

Hi Corey,
Picture styles are ONLY applied to JPEG images or video. They are never applied to RAW. Canon will "tag" the meta-data of the image indicating picture style choices so that desktop processing software that understands those choices can apply it after-the-fact. But the point of "RAW" is that the camera will not perform any change to the image which would result in a loss of original data.
As for the soft focus... the good news there is probably nothing wrong with your camera or your lens. It probably just needs a slight focus calibration adjustment (you don't even need to send it in for this.)
The camera sensor is analogous to a movie screen. If the image is blurry... it's not the movie screen... it's the movie projector (or the focus). However... keeping with that analogy... suppose we focused the image perfectly... but then moved the project a foot closer to the screen. The result would be a slightly out-of-focus image even though there is actually nothing wrong with the projector.
The phase detect focus sensors are on the floor of your camera. When the reflex mirror is down, some light is bounced down into those sensors to focus the image. The distance to the AF sensors vs. the distance to the real sensor is supposed to be calibrated to match... but it's actually possible for the AF sensors to think the image is focused when it's really slightly out of focus on the sensor. For this reason, your camera has auto-focus micro-adjustment capability -- in other words this is something you can test and tune yourself. The REASON you might do it yourself is because it turns out it can be different for every lens (even two EF 85mm f/1.2L lenses in a row might have slightly different focus). This adjustment is only available on the mid-range and pro bodies -- it's part of the reason you buy a premium body. The camera can actually remember the AF adjustment for each lens uniquely.

Or this article: http://www.luminous-landscape.com/essays/are_your_pictures_out_of_focus.shtml
BTW, to test the lens, I'd suggest getting a focus calibration target. You want controlled conditions when you do this -- don't shoot typical everday subjects because it wont be precise enough.
I use a DataColor Spyder "LensCal". The LensAlign products are also popular.

I have a new canon d7 mark ii and I can not get the raw picture to download in lightroom 6. Lightroom says it does not recognize the raw format. Is there a solution?

Lightroom 6 will not open raw files from my new canon d7 mark II camera. The program says "The files are not recognized by the raw format supported in Lightroom. The Lightroom 6 is up to date. Is there a quick fix to this issue?

Any idea when Lightroom 4 will have support for the new Canon 5D Mark III?

I have a new Canon 5D Mark III. When can we expect support for this camera in Lightroom 4?

It's already in the DNG converter that's posted along with ACR 6.7 Beta. That indicates probably the next version.

MY CS5 does not support my new Canon 7D Mark II camera Raw files on my Mac - what needs to be downloaded?

I'm having trouble getting the CR2 files from my new Canon 7D Mark II camera to CS5/Bridge - it says the files are not supported by the installed version of RAW. The DNG Converter dos not seem to help (I noticed it works for CS6 & CC only) What needs to be done?

I don't know your OS. If you have Vista (Windows) or OSX 10.6.8, you can only go to DNG 8.3, not the 8.7.1 you need.
What is your OS version?

FaceTime problems on 3 brand new MBP 13 Retina, Apple has given in

Hi All,
After recieving 3 brand new machines (MBP13 Retina) in Dec 2013 and Jan 2014, Apple does not believe they can deliver a proper working brand new machine. They also won't look into the problem and hope i can accept this faulty machine.
Is that what Apple is turned into? A company that doesn't believe they can fix their own machines? Or do they not care anymore about their customers and their product?
The person I'm facetiming with cannot hear me when we talk at the same time. My (3 brand new, but all 3 faulty) machines will mute me, so the other party cannot hear me. It is back to the walky talky ages again, 'over'.
Since I'm a great believer of Apple, I cannot believe they won't fix this problem and just keep on selling and delivering brand new MBP 13 Retina machines that don't work.
Does nobody at the Apple company care anymore, is there no company pride?

after a week of working on this problem the last straw was spending 3 hours being helped with this problem by 1mb.com after which time they asked me either to take out a years support at £129 or pay for help from a better qualified technician! As I only received my IPad last week I am going to send it back tomorrow. why doesn't Apple respond when it is obvious from all the discussions that there is a problem? Considering the price of the iPad I feel thoroughly disillusioned and cheated as well as frustrated by spending so many hours to no avail. this was not the only problem I've encountered but it is the one I've wasted most time trying to resolve./
