[QUOTE="DW_, post: 42785, member: 8667"] I no longer have access to that camera, he ended up taking it back to CostCo and getting the 5100. But I did a shutter actuations count and it came back with 32. If I had to guess, I would say the shop owner pulled the body out and ran a series of shots just in case I came back a second time with a complaint. I know I certainly would if I were in a similar position. So I'm thinking it's not likely a return model. Also, I set up a focus chart and went thru all my lenses and everything now makes sense. My 105mm macro was spot on and needed no fine autofocus adjustments, which explains why it performed so well on my friends body just out of the box. My other lenses, however, all required either -5 or -6 adjustment. Their consistency in adjustment made me go back and re-look at the 105mm but sure enough, it's still a zero. I find it odd that without a single exception (6 lenses) all but the macro needed some fine tuning, but it is what it is. Now I'm ready to do my happy dance!
