My question is.....what is involved in sending the 10D in to have it cleaned, and shutter inspected? Also, does the cost warrant this, to be a back up?
Thanks in advance for your info.

...cleaning... I have used the
Copperhill Cleaning method on all my DSLR's with fine results
...
the shutter doesn't 'need' inspection, it will either work or not, if not, the repair (read: replacement) costs are in the vicinity of ~$300...
...which is at or above the pure economical value of a 10D, but you already *have* it, so it could be worth more *to you*...
...involved in sending anything in is report it first to a Canon Service Center, they will then give you a Tag/Number to add on your package etc...
...hope this helps, *my* €0.02 worth...
Kindest regards!
