[QUOTE="Photographic Memory, post: 654957, member: 44510"] OK so I have just signed up in order to ask for help. Hello by the way :) Brand new Camera arrived on January 12th after being ordered from HDEW Cameras on the 6th. First thing I did upon unboxing was take a Photo and check the Shutter Count. I was overjoyed when it said '1'. I must mention, being a Body-only I noticed some kind of smearing on the Mirror which seemed to go away, so I put it down to condensation. With this Camera I have upgraded from the D3300 (had the D3100 prior to that and before that the D40X was my first Nikon DSLR). I sold the D3300 to Jessops on Thursday and paid the extra for the Nikkor AF-S 35mm 1.8g as I wanted to take advantage of D5500's well-publicised Low-Light DR quality. At first I thought it was a problem with the Lens. Was planning on taking it back tomorrow (Monday) when it dawned on me to try my other Lenses (AF-P 18-55 VR and AF-P 70-300). To my dismay I was so saddened to see this Pinkish/Magenta horizontal band (Amp Glow?) along the bottom quarter of many of my Photos (on the right if shot as Portrait). I will attach some examples, been trying to research online for the past 24 hours, but the Internet Search algorithms seem to have changed recently (can longer find meaningful, appropriate relevancy to the query?) These Photo artifacts are sometimes evident in plain (unprocessed) sight, but I have emphasized the issue by exporting them with NX-D Software. Please help. What is causing this? Is something seriously wrong with the Sensor? I am almost at 14 days so will need to ask to return the Camera asap if necessary! I have tried multiple variations of Photo settings and all come out likewise (Delayed Exposure, 12 bit instead of 14, Live View, ADL Off, etc) Thank you oh so very much for your assistance! [/QUOTE]
