Eric :

The D2Xs I bought from an elder couple incl.lots of goodies for about 200 quid , she told me it was a heirloom from her late father and that she did not know anything about photography, the NOVA 5AW made by Lowe-Pro looks as New, the flashes work flawlessly , bits and thingies I`ve no idea what they`re for , MH-21 , Two ENEL 4 A batts., respectively on pos.2 and pos.0...the bag was bulging , clearly they had cramped as much in it as possible as to say " here,all yours "..my own fault for not inspecting more thoroughly, ...I switched on the camera,LCD sprang to life ,camera fired..so I do not feel that I`ve been had , allow me to tell you what it is that` s rather odd about it..

Nikon D2Xs ;

Switching on camera , everything seems to work, LCD lights up...menu works...Mirror is in the " UP " position, ERR shows on top LCD ...depressing shutter button , mirror flips Down and then Up again..ERR disappears..depressing shutter button again causes the Aperture Lever to Move..depressing shutter button again (3rd time )...Mirror flips down/Up...it seems as if the mirror " thinks " that the shutter is open...everything goes so fast that it s difficult to know for shure,but I`ve got the impression that the shutter is Not working..yet it does not look damaged at all, on the whole the camera looks as new,certainly well cared for...and when ACS can give me a decent quote ( there`s still the freight cost Denm.- England -Denm ) then I ill send it in, for looking at what I got , the D2Xs has costed me say 100 quid..if ACS can fix it for a reasonable fee then I would have a very Nice Camera for an okay price...just trying to be fair here :-)
