[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 94400, member: 9240"] I managed to go a good year before seeing some of the "oil spot" / dirty sensor issues that I've read some people complain about with the D7000, requiring something other than the bulb-blow that has worked those far. What I've noticed lately is that the rubber flap at the base of the trigger tower used for the AC adapter has been flapping open rather easily. I've never used the adapter, but the flap location coincides with where my pinky finger winds up when I'm shooting. I'm assuming that this could be letting additional dust in rather easily, though it does lead to the batter compartment and not directly to the innerds. Anyone else have this issue? Thinking about sticking a piece of tape over it, or putting the battery grip on as a permanent fixture (haven't had it on for about a year - I only really use it when I'm on a day-long birding outing), if only to give my finger somewhere else to go.
