Very nice, Kev, although I think I would have gone for a letter box format for the second image - there's too much empty space above the car for my personal taste.
Very interesting - when I had my D750 done on the warranty recall a few years back, it reset everything to zero.Had to send my D750 in for a shutter replacement. Got it back yesterday. Interestingly, cumulative shutter count remains, but the shutter count recorded on an image on the card has been reset.
I have a D780 which I bought recently and use all the time, love it.
I have a Z6 now, but still miss the old D750 I had. In some ways I still hanker after a DSLR!
Oh yes.

I'm tempted by the liveview of the D780 which is supposed to be actually usable. Unlike the hit or miss liveview of my D750 - it's only flaw.
I had a Sony A7R3 and a set of Sony zooms. I bought a Nikon F4 as I quite fancied one to shoot film and loved the ergonomics and optical VF, I forgot how nice an optical VF is.I have a Z6 now, but still miss the old D750 I had. In some ways I still hanker after a DSLR!
I know this post was a few months ago but my D750 is in for a new shutter now it will be interesting to see the shutter count when I get it back. It was 182k when it went in.Had to send my D750 in for a shutter replacement. Got it back yesterday.

Have you checked that it is not part of the recall batch?One of my D750's needs a shutter, where is everyone having them replaced? I remember sending a D610 into Fixation, cost £345. Just had a quote from a local repairer for £250.

I ended up with a set of Nikon D series primes for the F4 and yearned for a DSLR that had similar ergonomics so bought the D780 (+ 24 -120) which of course uses the same lenses as the F4 and loved the D780 so sold all my Sony gear and have never looked back, I also have an F6 now which has very similar ergonomics to the D780.
Got my D750 back with the new shutter and it’s still showing 182k
Yours probably travelled further than mine but didn't leave Canada or get tangled up in the EU/UK border fiasco.Wow, mine was only gone a couple of weeks and that included having to travel across Canada two ways.
Okay, you win - or at least I hope you doI think I may win this thread.... Nikon 70-200 FL-E received by Nikon for repair 16th June..... returned 25th November they cited part availability (lens mount) from Japan as causing the delay..... still these things happen. In all fairness though, Maya in their CS team has and continues to be excellent.
Ouch, that sucks. I am surprised to hear it has to be shipped out the country for that work. The money it must be costing Nikon is insane! Glad you got a loanerThe saga continues. This morning I emailed the MD of Nikon UK to vent my spleen and a little while later got a phone call from service agent with a new tale of woe. The camera has failed their in-house quality inspection and has to go back to the workshop in the Czech Republic for remedial work. It appears it wasn't cleaned properly! I mean, is there no-one at Nikon here in the UK that is capable of cleaning a camera? Of course they're simply following the procedures laid down in their ISO9001 (or whatever) manual ... at the expense of common sense and expediency. So, I'm looking at another 2 - 3 weeks before I get it back.
On the plus side they delivered a loan camera to me this morning and they are refunding the money I paid last week.
Oh yes.
