To expect that every single unit of a piece of technology is going to work perfectly with no chance of any issues popping up in even a few of them is a bit entitled.
No-one made them pay that much, and if they didn't think it was worth it then why would they spend that much? Higher pricing these days doesn't change anything. Every new device, whether it be smartphones, cameras, or anything else is going to have some issues for the first little while after release, it's inevitable. I've been a victim of that very thing with a previous smartphone. Did I bitch about it everywhere, curse the manufacturer's existence and make exaggerations of about their QC, etc? No, because I accept the fact that this kind of thing is bound to happen. As long as the manufacturer is willing to give you a replacement with no hassle or extra fees then there's not really that much to complain about except a bit of bad luck on your part.
If this kind of thing isn't acceptable to you, if you're going to stick to denying the fact that there are bound to be issues with new high-tech devices to varying degrees then there's nothing that can be done for you. Like mikew said, everyone has an opinion.
-no I dont expect nikon to do proper QC I demand it. theyve been doing a crap a while. now. theres nothing entitled about that.
-to pay $2300 for a effing camera, HELLLLLLL YEA!!! I expect the camera to work flawlessly and will accept nothing less. rare cases are acceptable but not the amount that the D750 and D600 have been reported.
-a bit chutzpah from you to criticize others for wanting their cameras to work perfectly. said the man with a $300 camera and youre telling others they feel entitled to expect a $2300 camera to work perfectly and to accept nothing less. chutzpah of you to tell others " no one made them pay that much" said the man with a $300 camera. dont tell others what to buy or not to buy. I guess we should all have low standards and buy D3100 and just be happy. you really should keep your criticisms about what others demand of their gear to yourself. if anyone pays that much for a camera and accepts that it will fail in critical situations (weddings) when your skill is there but the camera cannot deliver its side and they think its acceptable, that person is just a sucker. simple as that. but then again, how many here rely on their gear in critical situations. so only a working pro would agree. all the hobbyists/enthusiasts dont see an issue.
-$2300 in this economy is a ton of money. pros buy it so they can make a living. $2300 is more than what I payed for each of my 3 flagship nikon F5. you didnt even pay$500 for a camera and youre criticizing others? who the heck are you to tell others they feel entitled to a perfectly working camera? there are tolerances to equipment thats manufactured. not in the numbers nikon has been hitting. their QC is crap. did you forget the D800 af issue, the 24-70 zoom stiffness, the Sb900 overheat issue? those piece of gear costs tons of money and if I bought those, yea, you bet your ass I feel entitled that it works flawlessly.
-regarding your phone. if I payed $800 for a phone and accepted its problems, I would be a sucker. I dont accept defects in elite products. extreme RARE cases are fine. but im certain without a doubt the company would replace it with no issues. unlike the deceitful nikon who denied issues with the D750 and D600 and only after the media and threats of class act lawsuits did they announce they would recall. they didnt do it out of their free will. I have only bitter feelings towards nikon.
