Absolutely beautiful. You have a great eye that results in great images. I was hoping I would see the old covered bridge near Winterset. :)

Excellent set of rules to consider. They all make one think.

I have the same charging equipment for my X-T2 and it works like your manual describes. It would be very unlikely that all 3 batteries would test bad. Like others have said, I would suspect a bad charger. Chargers are very inexpensive. I would buy another one and proceed from there.

As noted, AF-P technology involves the lenses, not the body, so we could comment better if we knew what lenses were involved. As a general personal observation, AF-P technology works wonders in the speed of AF.
I think the lenses he was looking at were the 18-55 AF-P and the 18-55 AF-S and wondering if the P model was worth an extra $120. From what I've read the lenses are optically similar but the AF-P is better for video as dannac has pointed out above.

There are two that I would consider. Both are medium zooms. They are the Sony 18-105, which is a very good, sharp lens, and the Sony 18-135 zoom, which is almost as good as the 18-105. The 18-105 has a slight edge on sharpness, but there’s no flies on the 18-135. I have that lens on my A6300 and like it a lot. Both lenses cover a lot of commonly use focal lengths and without the distortion problems associated with much longer zooms...I would recommend either of those two lenses.
I have both of those lenses on my A6000's and I can't decide which one I like best. For a walk around lens the 18-135 is a bit smaller and a bit lighter. If you do a lot of video I would probably choose the 18-105. You can't go wrong with either of them.

Someone is out to get you, right? Well... that someone already has you since you are looking over your shoulder instead of looking at your subject.

Thank you for the warning. Very timely. I have just put all my Nikons in my gun safe for safe keeping. Now I know why all of those black helicopters have been flying over my house lately.

When in doubt you might try the Reset option in your menu system??
The OP said he did that in post #1:
"Nothing worked except doing a reset to default. Then it returned to normal."

Isn't it a bit late to worry, not that you're ordered this equipment? And, I'm not sure why you posted this; bragging rights? There is no question involved and no education needed and you've already ordered what you wanted. Sorry, I don't want to sound mean, but we just get so many of these inane comments on this site.
And your "inane comments" should go to the top of the list. Your post was totally uncalled for.

The Cattle Egret photographed below was taken at 1/8000 sec. at an ISO 3200 because the bird was flying very close and fast, Aperture Priority, center weighted, group auto focus, continuous auto focus, D850, Nikkor 500mm f5.6 E PF ED VR. This is a male and he is in full mating colors.

It's only a month old. I would send it back for a replacement instead of a repair. Who knows what else might be wrong with that camera.

If I were restricted to just one lens on my A6000's, this is the lens I would choose. I read a lot of reviews before purchasing it and I haven't been disappointed one bit.

Seeking guidance: using 10yr old Tamron 18-270 f3.5 on a D3200, but shots are not sharp enough for me.
I have the same lens (PZD Model) on a D3300 and the sharpness is excellent. It's been through a photo safari in Africa and it did a great job. I would examine your technique before blaming the lens. Just shooting some shots with the camera mounted on a tripod on a calm day is a simple way to check sharpness. If the lens is still fuzzy, you may need a trip back to Tamron.

I used this lens on a month long trip in Europe last Fall with no apparent problems. Caveat, I shot primarily on auto mode.
What camera were you using the lens on?
