My D750 is in the serial number batch that has to be returned to Nikon to check and rectify a possible shutter shadow problem they have discovered. Perfect timing ...just as we are preparing for a holiday in France. Looks like the Fuji will get another outing.

Eric,
re: preparing for
I would confer with Nikon Service as to the urgency of a check-up/repair, especially if you do not see symptoms of the recall.
Regards, Gilbert

Yes I have done that, Gilbert. Have sent a covering letter to the Service Manager. Finger crossed he reads it.

There seem to have been a spate of small issues with D600, D750, D800/810.
Is this just a lack of QC or just keeness to provide a perfect product.

Prior to this there was an issue with the D200 and banding back in 2004.

My D600 didnt really suffer from the oily shutter problem so I cant complain but my D200 did need to returned for the banding issue.

Hope you get it back soon Eric.
I have found that Nikon has been very responsive when I needed it.

Eric,
re: turnaround
Good to see that Nikon Uk have got it organised.
Just consider the effort/logistics required to handle such a recall.
The Nikon service people in the Netherlands have also been getting good reports on the turn-around time.

I have to send the D7200 in for a focus issue and that was a 3 day turn around. Good service.

Gentlemen,
Let us not get carried away on the (mostly excellent) service.
There is a big difference (from the service providers point of view) between a recall and an isolated issue on a single camera.
A recall may require an extensive origanising effort (customer information, parts availability, expert technician hours and shipping to and fro)
Regards, Gilbert

I wonder how many D750 bodies need this recall inspection/ repair? They did say there was a queue. Having said that, customer services did advise me to send a begging letter with the body to get the service manager's attention.

...and it worked.

Well it was back in 3days as promised. The list of items changed, checked and added was surpringly long. I am beginning to wonder if the D750 was only half built when it left the factory!

Looking forward to testing it in the next few weeks.
