[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 343450, member: 9240"] I expect no trouble at all from either D600 post-servicing. My old one has been a workhorse since getting repaired last year, and I only sent it back in because, hey, it was free and it's a new shutter. This one has lower miles and I suspect that if the first run doesn't fix things then I can raise a stink and get a 610, but I really don't expect that. Price? Lets just say that I didn't need to haggle, and would have felt dirty if I did. Less money than a new D7100, and this morning, as he's shipping out the various pieces he didn't send when he sent to body for me to check out, he asks me, "Can you use a Sigma 70-300mm? I'm [I]never[/I] going to use this thing." I almost never fall into deals like this, so I'll take it this time. As for the D800, I have no idea what they're actually going for, though I see them listed between $1700-2200. My thought is to maybe trade for a 70-200mm f/2.8 VR II. Not that I need it, but after doing a lot of night shooting this past week I can see me using it a lot more than I would the D800. [/QUOTE]
