Received my new D200 copy

Thursday, March 16th, 2006

I have the new body and, since my first one was not too good, i did some quick tests (ISO200/400 and ISO1600/3200). The short-type banding is still there a liiittle. I think this is just part of the camera. I don’t mind this too much. Strange, though, that two similar shots (same ISO, exposure, same […]

D200 in repair for banding issue (4).

Thursday, March 16th, 2006

This is a continuation of the banding posts of my D200.
Good news from my dealer, BromField Cameras. They called me this morning and they will replace my old D200 with a new one!

Monday, March 6th, 2006

I came home this evening and I found a little package just behind my front-door. I did not order anything recently, online or otherwise, that i had not yet received. So, i was hoping it was the D200. The Nikon-Service site did not report my service-ticket as ‘Shipped’. It was still ‘In Shop’. But…. it was […]

My D70 was broken. The light meter was busted (3)

Monday, March 6th, 2006

I forgot to update about the repairs that fixed my D70’s metering problems.
Best Buy called me about 8 days later to inform me that the D70 was repaired. That was pretty fast! They replaced a circuit, which - i think - handles the light measurments of the camera. It is again in fine working order. […]
