(which i could have extended for free for 2 years) <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />DigitialRev's warranty is not bad, but only one year, they will allow you to get repairs done locally at a Nikon approved repair centre, but not Nikon themselves, for which they will refund your costs.  You can also send it back to them in HK.  To be honest, they have been very prompt and helpful in communications with me.This arose over dust/oil issues on my sensor.  Luckily for me a basic home clean with a blower has moved 90% of the dust from my sensor.  I just hope & pray i have a new series D600 that does not have the defect.I just wanted to share this tale for any other cheap ignorant fools around like me!<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
