[QUOTE="Photowyzard, post: 67208, member: 8344"] [b]Re: Thom Hogan changes D800 "Recommended" opinion to "Not Recommended"[/b] Thanks, I greatly appreciate the post and your thoughts. Unlike you, I can drive to Nikon, 20 minutes tops. My wait to get it back, if I suffer this is minimal, maybe 2-4 weeks. I had hoped that their QC had been better and as the Thom review stated, cameras shipped after July 4 shouldn't have issues. I just find it extremely offensive to drop $3k and have to deal with this or even worry about it. For a company that was #1 and would love to retain that title again, I believe this has all been handled poorly. I am buying this from a reputable chain, they are huge and have never let me down, so I will ask some questions when I am in the store and see what the options are tomorrow. I think I will call Nikon as well and see what they have to say. Since I am coming from a D90 with 11 points, 50 sounds like the world, but I am not happy about this whole issue. I haven't really jumped onto the AF bandwagon until now, as mine is in and I was hoping it would all be resolved by now. I will post in a day or two and let you know how it works out. [/QUOTE]
