[QUOTE="aroy, post: 306704, member: 16090"] My D70 and D300 buttons are still new after years of use. I bought the D3300 on 11th March, 2014. Now after 5300 shots, the "+" button's paint is erased and the "-" button is fading. I think that the current printing on button is to blame. Older buttons normally had a depression or etching (of the symbol's outline) where the paint would reside, so surface rubbing never erased the symbol. Currently the symbol is just pained on surface, so rubs off easily. What I plan to do is following . Take a sharp pin and carefully etch the symbol on my button. . Take white paint or use white "board marker" to fill the etched part with paint. That should ensure that the symbol on the button remains for at least a couple of years. [/QUOTE]
