After several days of use but then fell during long exposures ISO 100
and exposure times to between 1s and 8s that in orange reddish color pixel errors
were visible. These are classified as definitely not Dead, Stuck or hot pixels.
White to grayish pixels which were spreading with more than 1000 units in the pictures.
Camera from the Service in the hope that helps a pixel mapping. Result was, however, the
the pixel mapping showed no effect. On the advice of the Services Camera Wurd then
Amazon exchanged. One month later arrived the replacement camera. Well, what can I say - the
Replacement camera had the same problem with the dead pixel. In addition, it turned on
replacement camera still a nice little back focus. The statement of Nikon Services to
That should it be due to the lenses (all Nikon) and the camera based on your pixel density
would need for good quality imaging performance lenses was nevertheless more than a joke to
look.
Reproducible tests from sturdy tripod with Lenscal clearly showed that the lenses, for example,
with contrast-based autofocus perfectly sharp featured Live View, the phases AF but basically
produced a back focus and were disarmed. So do not it is up to the lenses but the AF module.
The integrated AF fine tuning helps here though and can compensate vermeindlich certain tolerances, but
Turns out that the fine tuning though everything looks fine at 40x focal length, you go to the local area
or further away to front or back focus sets.
Long story short, I would like to keep the camera still under the said Conditions shall either
a complete change of system rather than, or I give the D300 one more try.
Update 05:03:11: I have married the D7000 still give another try and ordered a model of the series again. Except for a few minor smallpox at ISO 100 and 8s exposure under certain light / color conditions I can only say, it works as much as I would have expected from the outset. Autofocus now sits where it should with all lenses, the noise behavior / Detailed assets at higher ISOs me to skin over and over again and the features of the camera promise what I have already written input. A good hybrid between D300 and D90. For prospective buyers a side note - buys you if you want continuous shooting in jpg large fine definitely make a quick and decent card. The Sandisk Extreme Pro UHS-I brings ever more at some pictures 6fps than the 30MB / s Edition and rather as a Class 10 SDHC Noname. - Well, what do I do now with the vote. The I will be set to 3 stars (otherwise she would get 4 if there would just not have been the initial difficulties)
Update 27/04/11: Nikon has released a firmware update on 25.04.2011, which deals with the "pixel / smallpox issue". Has changed the time from which the Langzeitrauschunterdückung (Dark Subtraction) is available. Instead of from> 8s this is now starting> 1s when needed available, thus eliminating any malfunctions occurring.
