I have a a NIKON D750 that I bought in May 2015. Two months ago it started acting "funny"... the first shot after turning it on would "hang" and I had to hit the shutter release a second time and then it worked correctly. I was shooting a basketball game and turned it off to during half time. Turned it back on and nothing and through the view finder something blocking the view.

I took it to my local NIKON camera shop and they opened it up and raised the mirror. The shutter was totally mangled!

Nikon will replace and repair the issue of the shutter at no charge. If you go to the Nikon site and enter your serial number it will tell you if your camera is one or a series that have the defctive shutter.

Which is one reason why I am never the first to buy the "latest and greatest" I wasn't paid by Canikon, Sony, or Pentax to work in their quality control department

Sony's new FF A mount was due out last September. But the release date has been pushed back twice now.

THEY are making sure their product has as few bugs and glitches as humanly possible. ;)

Either that or they lost the screws to put it together. :oops: :oops: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wow. First the D600 had spots caused by the shutter flaking off paint(if I remember correctly), now the D750 is tearing up shutters.
I think Nikon better get their head out of their a$$. These are NOT cheap cameras to buy and I'm wondering about the quality of the materials going into them. So far my replacement D610 has been great, but now I'm wondering "AGAIN!" These could very well be the same shutter assembly since the 610 had a "new and improved" shutter assembly.

Mine has been back to Nikon twice for shutter issues...flare and some other recall that I don't remember.

meh....

Or, as a Sony owner myself, it had SO MANY problems they were ashamed to bring it out yet. Sony is so fast on their R&R sometimes they rush things, not that this is bad but it is one of the reasons they bring out so many products.

I own one and plan on another, it is one of the best out of the box cameras produced, PERIOD. Sorry about YOUR shutter, I am sure NIKON will stand by you and help you out. Which is what a GOOD company does.

I am a Nikon shooter but lately their quality control has been less than good.

billnikon Loc: Pennsylvania/Ohio/Florida/Maui/Oregon/Vermont

The question is then, have YOU experienced a problem Nikon could not fix? What quality control issue have YOU had? I would be interested to know how Nikon handled YOUR issues.

I agree with Joe. Since Nikon began to produce cameras in Thailand I know they have had serious problems with quality control. I have not heard anything about their lenses made there or in China.
I only buy refurbished or second hand cameras.

If this is the issue that goes back to 2014, mine aren't affected. There's nothing online about "mangled" shutters.

What's more weird, theoretically, all current DSLRs should simply "go crazy" one day (becoming unusable) due to the latest "lead free" solder craze. The lead-free solders have a strange quirk: they grow electrically active crystals, like stalactites or stalagmites, which eventually screw up electrical paths and render the object useless.

When my digital Hasselblad went crazy, I had contacted a glow in the dark friend of mine, and he told me about the issue: "I know what it is," he said, which is a thing creeping into all things modern. The issue is so obvious and prevalent that Hasselblad now has "the fix price" to fix cameras and lenses posted on a special page of their site. Unfortunately, it will happen every few years, this electrical nightmare, which guarantees money for the company, which replaces the tainted boards with tainted, but NEW boards destined for the same failure.

I have spoken to Hasselblad about needing to change their manufacturing methods to make cameras dependable enough to be "Hasselblad."

As circuits get smaller and smaller, I wonder what the future holds. Hmm... sounds like a movie...

Absolutely. After reading the post several times could not find anything about mangled shutters. Having a D-750 bought early on no problems with mangled shutters. This post was the first I have seen. As Jerry pointed out back in 2014 some D-750's depending on serial numbers did have flare and shadow issue. Old news. To the original poster would you post a link for that particular "mangled" shutter situation. I noticed that you did reference Nikon web site. Could find nothing about "mangled shutter recalls" on the web nor on Nikon web site other than the 2014 situation. Please point me to the " mangled shutter" by providing a link. Searching produced zero on that. Thank you.
