canon 1d mk3 error 99

[kennycanon]

I was working on a wedding up in county Durham on saturday ,
just taking the register shots and the 1d mk3 fired but came up with some txt to quick the read it and then eror 99 and rebooted ie as if it restarted with the sensor clean the shutter would fire then error 99 but no image recorded and reboot/restart anyone came across this before ????
the camera was fine after about 5 minutes and finished the wedding with it...
ps the register shots were fine I had the backup 5d over my shoulder ..

They are the exact symptoms I got before the shutter packed up completely on my mkIII.
The fact that the shutter fired on restart makes me think that rather than dirty lens contacts etc.
I'd get it off to Canon asap

My canon was one of the re-called mk3's that had all the work done on by canon.
I will call them on Monday and see what they have to say..
