[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 346185, member: 9240"] Yeah, a lot depends on your use and what you do in post, if I read it correctly. As a percentage of normal shots, my 30+ second exposures are in <0.01% range (what's that, 1 in 10K? OK, maybe <0.1%), so I'd have to think hard about sending it back. But for people who do a lot of night sky and Milky Way photography this could be a real issue. And when you're out there in the field you don't want to have to wait 2 minutes before you can frame your next 2 minute exposure [I]every time[/I]. I do believe there is a way to do LENR in Photoshop after the fact by taking an equal length black frame exposure and using it to "heal" the original, but still, it's a pain to deal with on a camera of that level (or any level, really). That they dealt with it so quickly leads me to believe that they're either in full on damage control mode since the D600, or it's something they knew about and had not been able to overcome by release date and figured they'd roll the dice and try and get a firmware fix out there before anyone noticed since it was on such a unique type of photo. This is by no means of the level of what happened with the D600, and as a software systems person I know that things like this go out with releases all the time since missed release dates are far more damaging than what you get for minor bugs (which this really is in the scope of things). But when you are already bruised it hurts even more when someone punches you in the same spot. [/QUOTE]
