Nikon has probably had just about enough when it comes to the D600 and its sensor dust/oil issues. It started with user complaints, evolved to class action lawsuits from a number of different sources, and has now escalated to a full-on order by the Chinese government to stop D600 sales in China after a state-run television show featured a scathing exposé about the issue.

I haven’t used my D80 in awhile so I guess I should try it out...
I started digital photography with a D50, bought another D50 and converted it to IR, then a D40, a D200, then a D700. $15,000 in Nikkor glass, and have never had an issue with any of it. Again, any of it!
Call me stupid, but I’ve got a D3X on the way ...
I bet you take a mean selfie!
;<)
Naw, but I have a few mean pics of Tork and a sequoia in his front yard (if the earthquake didn’t knock it down) :o)
I have a couple snapshots of your buddy the first time he visited Benderville
Not safe for work?
;<)
He was mesmerized by our Painted Ladies and he took way too many photos of them...
I’ve had an F3HP, a D70, a D90, a D7000, a D800, a D600, and now a D7100.
And many nikkors have come and gone, currently have about eight or nine.
My D600 had the flash button freeze up last year. They found a spot on the sensor that wouldn’t clean off, and Nikon replaced the sensor free of charge. I have a buddy who wants to buy it, and I haven’t fired it up since i got it back.
The other day, I got an email from Nikon saying they were being recalled to fix the sensor problem. I guess I’ll need to call them to see if I already have the upgraded sensor.
I’m keeping the D7100 for lightweight/travel, and the D800 for when I break out the RRS tripod and get serious.
Need to ass I also had a D2X—beautiful image quality but a real beast to lug around.
