now that is the question ,it also makes me wonder how many people out there are struggling as i was with faulty cameras without realising it ,and remember i'm an experienced nikon user .most advice i was getting seems to have been based on oh thats the way these new sensors work .
i'll give this a week and see .
i estimate i took around 4000 shots with the old one and at least 3000 of them were test shots to try to figure it out ..time will tell >:(


Well it's good to know.

I suppose we are all guilty of missing the obvious ....a faulty camera.
I guess we have come to expect reliability from Nikon bodies and consider it last on the list. Maybe it should always be at the top when a significant change from our experience occurs.


Yes indeed.
However it must have been through some sort of QA process so we usually assume that as a complete item it works as designed. The metering and general behaviours of the old camera seems to have been way off!
