[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 85458, member: 9521"] Yay!! She's back home again. Nikon replaced the shutter mechanism and box, adjusted the AF left focus issue (yet to be verified) and cleaned the sensor. Thankfully my dealer made a huge fuss about this camera and after less than 4 months the shutter goes so if anything else occurs during the warranty period the rep will spot me a new D800 (as he should). I know I should be P.O'ed with the fact it had the left focus issue and even more so because the shutter broke after only ~30,000 activations, some how I don't feel upset at all. In fact, I feel like I just re-set my shutter count to zero and am actually thankful it all turned out well in the end. I'm also very thankful I bought my camera from a great dealer who has taken care of everything and I've not been out a cent in shipping and insurance costs.
