I've had the D600 from the beginning, and yes mine had spots; but I just clean the sensor every now and then and since about 3,000 shots (now over 10,000) there has been a significant improvement (currently 2-3 spots, originally perhaps 30 or so!). I'm not bothered by them, my D800 is just as...

That's true, though it never bothered me much with my D7000 & grip; but then I never new anything different. Also, I didn't have the grip on all the time; I'd tend to remove it if I wasn't shooting all day anyway. Two in the grip seems like a better idea. Let us know if you discover any...

That's really useful; thanks. I still can't decide whether to go with the Meike or spring for the Nikon (£200 at Digital Rev). I had an original MB-D11 on my D7000 which I was able to sell for £120 (it cost me £145) so am wondering if the cost saving is really as great as it seems. The...

Anybody else shooting with the D600 having an issue with the virtual horizon freezing? I use this feature a lot (and use to on my D7000 where it never failed); I've noticed after prolonged shooting it freezes and requires me to turn the camera off and wait a couple of moments for it to reset...

Due to be delivered Thursday via UPS... So far..Wow! Why NOT buy grey import!

I ordered one on Monday, got the email confirmation of order immediately. Payment taken this morning, tracking email received a couple of hours ago. Mine was a credit card order though (I needed to use a specific card for the purchase so couldn't do it via BACS and get the 5%). Price against...

Thanks, I wondered if there was a TP specific discount rather than (or in addition to) the BACS discount. Tx.

Hi All, Maybe I'm being stupid, how do I get the TP discount when ordering from Panamoz? Tx.

Maybe I'm being stupid; how do I order from Panamoz and get the TP discount?

For anyone who's not used a full frame camera the difference in coverage is immense. At 16mm with my Tokina 11-16mm I get full coverage on the D600; a quick comparison of my office at FX vs DX is like standing 5ft further back. I wanted to go FX to shoot interiors, this will make a huge...

Had a quick go. Takes a while to reprogram with my custom settings from new. Rear cursor control smaller and a bit 'wobblier' than the D7000, but not enough to may me think it will break. Rear AE-L/AF-L button marginally closer to rear command dial (someone mentioned that it didn't fall...

Ordered the 50mm f1.8D 2 days ago (once I suspected this would arrive soonish)! Should arrive this week. I also have a 16-35mm WA zoom on order, but they're a bit more difficult to find (and that's me out of money!). Just unboxing now; bigger than the D7000, noticeably so (but not...

Mine's just arrived! The Panamoz price is excellent, and made me regret buying from Jessops. I've never bought from Jessops before, but have been planning my D600 purchase for a while and, having followed the D800 launch, understood that Jessops are the preferred UK distributor for Nikon and...

After the D800 delivery fiasco I have been planning my D600 purchase for some time, and expected to perhaps wait until Christmas before actually receiving the camera. Just got an email from Jessops...shipped, expected to arrive tomorrow (Tuesday)! A bit sooner than I'd planned...
