[QUOTE="Englischdude, post: 271696, member: 16372"] oh well, thats the end of that i guess. Just had an email from the company, that the ir conversion went very well, but there seems to be an issue now with the rear screen. It is backlighting but no text. They have tried taking the camera apart and checking all cables but to no avail. They suspect that due to the pressure applied during cleaning the sensor, maybe a dry soldering joint has broken or something. Bummer! In any case the communication was great and they gave me a number of options for compensation. Either the camera back as is no charge for the conversion, they source another d80, they source a similar camera of similar value D40 or D70 for example and convert it, or they send me cash to cover the value of the camera which we agreed at 150 euro. Ive taken the last option. Now what to do about getting into IR ........... :flustered::confused: [/QUOTE]
