[QUOTE="eli, post: 136650, member: 10282"] Have had my D7000 since its initial release, having been one of the first to secure the camera. Within the first 6,000 shots, it developed a great deal of dust. I had the sensor cleaned at a local camera store and then i discovered an oil spot. Brought it back to the store and i was told it was an oil spot. I then went to Nikon and they serviced it, cleaning the sensor. They calibrated the auto focus and i am very pleased with the result. However, i still have only about 7000 actuations and was thinking about upgrading to full frame. Then the 7100 came out. As i think of the oil/dust issues, I wonder about switching to Canon, if it is worth the loss of money i would suffer on lenses, the D7000's reduced value, the grip. But. . . it does appear there is a lot of noise about NIkon's lack of quality control and its failure to respond to the oil issues on the D600. SO, oil is a problem, we all need to learn how to maintain our cameras, but Nikon should manufacture a quality product with quality control the equivalent of its wonderfully engineered cameras.
