A preemptive recall (prior to availability to buying public) speaks volumes about Nikon's oncession with quality and reputation.

If so, it is well done.
But I see nothing therein that looks malicious.

The last sentence of the article "P.S. [editor’s note: this is of course totally fake]"

I'm feeling quite foolish. :-( :oops:
Normally my common sense kicks in. It failed me this time.
The DIY Photography website is credible.
Other photo discussion websites have picked it up and are running with it as fact, referencing the culprit DIY Photography website.

But who reads the "About the Author" blurb very often.
I sure didn't!
But there it is, in bold letters at the very end:
P.S. {editor’s note: this is of course totally fake}

The taste of hook, line and sinker is not very pleasant! :shock: :oops:

Problem with it was that many have some doubts about new releases,so it seemed appropriate. :lol: :lol:

Its obviously tongue in cheek. Did you actually read it? How could you think it might be real?

Even if that wasn't there, how could anyone take it seriously. For those folks I have a bridge in New York for sale.

But given other recent Nikon recalls, it seemed possible....... oh well.

Have you been following the Nikon delivery date change? Have you not seen many remarks regarding their quality control regarding recalls over the last few years?

What made this post viable is that it is not beyond the realm of possibility.

Remember,a good rumor is really good if there is a perception that it might be true. :lol: :lol:
