We are seeing an intermittent "fan error" message when either starting or stopping to record. Anyone seen this? Recording seems to be good however.

Thanks.

If you extend the eye piece VF, to allow for a bigger air intake, does the error still show up?

Thanks, that may help prevent overheating. I can't hear the fan spinning so, there is definitely an issue. C300 is going to service.

Take care,

So, Canon replaced the fan and rushed the C300 back to me. 24-hr turnaround. Great support.

Yes, but such a shame it needs a fan anyway. More noise, more to go wrong!

Hey Alan, I'm curious what you mean by your post? What upper-end cameras out there now DON'T have a fan?

I too believe that all high end cams are now using fans. Sorry to hear you had this issue.
