[QUOTE="sharpsnapper, post: 251255, member: 19025"] Hi, just thought I'd provide an update regarding my D7100.

The configuration of the contact points differs from one lens-type to the other and the body has developed a fault when it comes to reading from the Nikkor lens....for some obscure reason. Anyway, the body is only 3 months old so they will be replacing it for no cost. On a related note - I have the option of upgrading the body as opposed to swapping like for like, does anyone think there will be a D7200 or another DX format flagship out anytime soon?
