D750 recalled again

DarkShadow · Mar 1, 2016

Good then the prices will drop even more on the D750 and I get one for the price of a D610.

That means a D760 (or D750s) is on the way!! Its only feature will be 1 more fps.

Nah probably 1/2 a frame to make it 7FPS, nice round number

Hahaha, I didn't know the D750 was 6.5fps.

Makes me wonder how many perfectly good D600's were sold very cheaply because of the recall.

Probably many.

Thankfully my D750 is NOT affected. I would have noticed if HSS wouldnt work, though. I use that one a lot ...

Whow, why so optimistic ? I would rather have guessed 0.5 fps. And we'll get "better white balance" (that nikon will never offer to the D750 in a firmware update) and some obscure feature nobody has ever missed (like quiet continuous drive mode ... I guess with braketing it would be useful, but otherwise, meh).

I still tell people who want to get a D610 to get a used D600 instead, since its the better / less annoying(*) of the two and if it really doesnt work, you'll get a completely new D610 for free.

(*) Because the monitor doesnt activate when you change your ISO settings.

all this means to me is that Nikon figured out a better solution to the initial service advisory. And they are still offering this fix to any D750 that were affected by the flare issue that no one has ever talked about since 2014.

oh wait, is this not the flare issue and there was a shutter issue no one here actually ever cried about?!

I'm not sure what you mean about that?

Interesting observation, my impression was always the opposite, when I moved from my D7100 to the D750 the first thing I saw how much better the AWB is, in most cases now I dont need to make changes post processing any more, this doesnt mean the AWB is perfect but it was quite an improvement over the D7100

apparently the D750 has a weird quirk that if you change the ISO setting, the lcd screen on the back of the camera activates and lights up.

I thought he was talking about the D610. I checked mine, works fine.

I've been told that the D610 has the same annoying behavior as my D750: whenever you press the ISO button, the monitor lights up. Really annoying if you currently have your eyes on the viewfinder.

Never actually handled a D610 myself, so I wouldnt know if its true. The D600 definitely didnt do that.

Nope, not mine anyways.

Mine is affected. Great... :-/

Still don't know what the actual issue looks like. Never had any problems. I've had focus issues with my 85mm 1.8G that I didn't have on my D5200, and the auto exposure has been inaccurate sometimes, but no partial shading.

Why the long face ?
You are getting a brand new shutter.
I cant wait to get mine
