[QUOTE="woodspiral, post: 585114, member: 42800"] Thank you Charlie. I have no comcrete idea by what mechanism dust could reduce after a few thousand shutter activations. One can imagine a new component bedding in and shedding micro particles in the process. I found references to another model which had surplus oil from the shutter being shed onto the sensor. This one was acknowledged by Nikon. I'd have to re-research that to confirm the model/year where it happened. To get to the heart of my first question, how can I guarantee that a camera I buy hasn't been sitting in a warehouse for two years? I live in the UK and work in London. Who is the most reliable, trustworthy and helpful dealer? Apologies if I sound overly churlish - my hard-earned sponds and I find it terribly hard to part company. I want to believe that the D810 is the best dSLR, but I also need to be certain sure that if there are problems (as found by 10% of the 200 or so Amazon reviewers of this camera, to give an example) then I can definitely get that resolved quickly and without hassle.
