OT canon lens repair

Shooting a anniversary event. External battery pack got snagged on my waist bag and snatched entire camera off a bar height table, sling shot it across the room. Canon says lens too fragile and beyond shelf life repair. $1990 to replace it. So under the knife we go. Missed the cut ribbon cable when I put it back together. However. Lens shoots, meters, just no autofocus. Manual focus for now. I suspect ribbon cable. Thank you youtube.

Greetings-
Anything you can do to save L glass is worth it, glad it has a second life. I am a little surprised that Canon wouldn't take a crack at it, I wonder how they compute "shelf life"?
Happy shooting!Chris

Well, I'm impressed! I would have just had to start using my phone!
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Amazing effort buddy!
Been pretty lucky over the years. Never a major issue with L glass.
But have used Havel Camera out of San Antonio TX for person and office gear. Always good service.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
I fixed a 70-200 F2.8 L Canon auto focus once. Keeping everything clean was the difficulty.______________________________________________I love lamp..
