Oh Well ! Looks to me like Nikon's Superiority is about to take another hit. Have had my D600 back maybe 2 weeks. New shutter and multiple parts replaced at Mellville, complete cleaning etc. etc. Less then a thousand shutter actuations since return. Out today taking some pictures and took a sky picture just to check it out. Guess what I have. Yup you're correct if you said spots lots of spots. So next guess, where do you suppose that camera is headed back to. I could become a very unhappy camper over this. Does anyone know of any contacts for the class action suits that are going on? Because as far as I'm concerned this will be their last chance to fix this problem.

Well, if you play your cards right, you could end up with a D610. Just saying............

Get some swabs and clean the sensor. It's not hard to do.

Before you wear out UPS, learn to clean the sensor.

^^^Once it is out of warranty, sure.

But until that day comes, the manufacturer needs to make good on it's promise. :x

Nikon will fix it or replace it even if it is out of the warranty period. Call them and give them another try, maybe they will exchange it for a D610 model.

I know how to clean a sensor have the equipment and could easily do it. I have had to clean the sensors on my Olympus a Nikon and 2 canons about 8 times in as many years. I am pretty fussy and particular with my equipment. For 2 grand I do not intend to do any sensor cleaning under 3 weeks out of supposed fix and total clean. There is a documented problem with this product, it is their responsibility to make it right. Not my responsibility to band aid it for them and make believe I am happy and all is well. Not sure what you do. However my question would be if you have customers will they just willingly accept second rate or defective product from you ?? And do you deliver second rate product with an expectation of oh that's okay we'll just touch it up and live with it ?? Well !

As per contract my guys just came in and replaced the roof on your house 3 weeks ago. It just rained and the roof leaked messing up an interior wall and causing your hardwood floor to buckle. You tell your neighbor about it and he says, just throw a tarp over it and clean up the mess yourself. Leave that poor contractor alone. What are you going to do ?

Acc, funny how it somehow seems like it's your fault that you got one of those lemons called a 600. Why don't you just send it to one of those guys that thinks you should clean it yourself. They can fight over who gets to clean it that month and pay the postage both ways. It won't take that long before they get tired of it, and call Nikon for you!! :lol:

Probably the best thing to try. So I will give it a go. Sure can't keep doing this month to month.

So true and if I didn't have more than they can probably afford to cover invested I might try that. One of the problems is this becomes time expensive also. I want to take pictures not spot and retouch extensively on pictures. If it was old I would just clean it but I just can not justify cleaning 3 week old work.
