Hi you'll,

Last Monday morning my D2h stopped metering properly. I was tad irked as it had been repaired for the same problem in July. I went home and called NikonUSA and they e-mailed me a one day air UPS shipping label. I shipped it that afternoon and they received it on Tuesday morning.

The repairs were completed yesterday and the D2h arrived early this afternoon. :clap They replaced the metering, the bayonet mount, and the rubber grip. They adjusted the metering and focusing. They also did an eternal cleaning and a general check-up. As an added "bonus" they cleaned my filthy CCD (which I had been about to tackle). The camera works fine once again.

While I would have been happier w/o the problem I can't complain about the service they gave me at no expense to myself.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Good to hear!

    I sent off my D70 awhile ago and got it back (Green Light of Death) fixed and cleaned! With 0 cost to me. clap.gif

    And I found out that my D2H is covered for life for the meter apparently..at least that's what Nikon told me on the phone.

    Nothing to it Gus. Just requires a steady hand and nerves of steel. rolleyes1.gif

    Actually its quite simple. I'm usually shooting in very dusty surroundings so I usually end up cleaning my sensor 2-3 times a month.
