HOORAY! My camera's going to be o.k.!

So I got the word on my camera and I thought I'd pass it along.  The body itself is o.k. which is a huge relief.  My new lens has some damage done which will cost me $200 to repair.  Fortunately I'm loaded so that shouldn't be a problem.  It's kind of  funny because this lens is usually around $1200, I looked around and found a used one in great condition for $800.  Took the risk and now I'll be paying closer to the new lens price just a few days later after receiving it.   It won't be ready for a few weeks and I actually bought the lens to have for a photo shoot I'm doing in California next week.  So I feel like I need to rent the same lens since I got it for this specific shoot anyway.  Oh well, life happens and it could be a lot worse.  I'm so glad the body of my camera is fine.  Thanks to those who care,  I think I'm going to be o.k.
