[QUOTE="Fred Kingston, post: 713991, member: 10742"] I would go with the LifePixel option... Just to be clear... The sensor isn't scratched... The UV filter in the stack that sits on top of the sensor is. LifePixel has extensive experience in replacing/removing the various filters in the stack that sits on top of the sensor... The D810 has 1 less filter (the Low-pass filter) in the stack than normal Nikon cameras. I've used LifePixel in the past to do IR conversions and their work is excellent. They wouldn't be removing/changing the IR filter in the stack, just replacing your scratched UV filter which sits on the top in the stack... I also wouldn't expect Nikon to replace the sensor assembly under warranty because someone damaged the sensor by cleaning it incorrectly... [/QUOTE]
