Nilon Free Maintenance Service Initiative
Jul 14, 2015 10:51:48 #
I received an e-mail this morning offering a free maintenance service on my DSLR.
I am just wondering whether all Nikon users have had this same offer.
Just one problem: How can I part with my camera?

Have you contacted Nikon? I have never heard of such a thing as free maintenance on a Nikon camera and I have used Nikon cameras and lenses for more than 50 years.

I just took a look at their US website and there was nothing like this under "Service Advisories".

Sounds like a scam to me.

No, I have not at this time, but I do believe that the e-mail is legitimate.
This is the first time for me also. I bought my first Nikon (FM) in April of 1980 and I still have it,

What makes you believe that the e-mail is legitimate?
Some people believe the Earth is flat or in honest politicians! :D

The only legitimate EMail one is likely to get will come from your kids and chances are they are trying to scam you also.

I don't think there is or was a Nikon D710. Did you mean a Nikon D7100?

I did call Nikon support and the offer is legitimate. I did not ask about the scope of the program so I can't tell you if you will receive the same offer, but I hope that you do.

Thanks for being diligent and confirming! Kudos. There are so many scams around these days.
I would be very happy to get that genuine e-mail from Nikon, err for my Canon cameras! :lol:
Take care, and good luck!
