[QUOTE="PapaST, post: 94681, member: 8330"] Sorry to hear the problem and how it affects your videos. I think the D600 is all over the place as far as the dust. I believe lubricant is the culprit for some but I also think shutter rubbing is another. In my case I think I'm getting debris from the shutter. Looking under a loupe (not really noticable to the naked eye) I think my "dust strands" are a little too shiney and shimmery to be dust. I think my shutter is rubbing and left some debri. I'm at about 5000 actuations and I can honestly say I've noticed a significant reduction. But in my mind it's still a problem. Like Dave_W mentioned with his D800, if my shutter craps out I'll be one sore Nikon owner. Hopefully the tolerances on the shutter were a bit too tight and have worn themselves in. But either way it should have never been like this. I think Nikon worded their response carefully and have assessed that (to them at least) it's not worth a recall. Dealing with individuals is probably what they plan to do. And they've worded it to point out that all cameras handle dust differently so D600 could be more prone. On that note, being that I shoot mainly photos and not videos it hasn't had an immediate impact on my work. I'm still not happy but like you I'm biding my time. Sorry to hear about your video woes... I hope it gets better. [/QUOTE]
