[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 346903, member: 9240"] While I don't disagree with you, I do believe what folks like Nasim do in testing new cameras is critical, and a real service to the Nikon community. Finding fault is part of field testing, and Nikon and every other camera company relies on their pros to find the faults they missed while crossing fingers and hoping they don't. The D600 situation has made the idea of a [I]Service Advisory[/I] far more debilitating than it should be, and those who want to poke at Nikon will use this and [I]every[/I] SA for the foreseeable future to do just that. How [I]we[/I] react is up to us. My reason for posting initially is not to poke at Nikon but to inform the forum because, 1) we have D810 users here, and 2) we have night-shooters here. If someone happens to be both then I would expect them to test their own camera - stick it in a closet, put the lens cap on and take a 2 minute exposure or 3 and see what shows or doesn't. No noise? No problem. Noise? Consider how it impacts you and if you need to send it in do it at a convenient time, because you can't "enjoy your photography" if your camera is ruining your photographs. Otherwise, like life in general, no one should be sweating the small stuff. [/QUOTE]
