Repair code

<p>I bought my D600 last December when they had the 24-85mm combo deal. I've enjoyed it a lot, and once or twice in the clear blue sky portion of a photo noticed a dust spot, but nothing like oil splatters. I sent it in to Melville, simply writing "spots on photos", taking advantage of my warranty before it ran out. Primarily I thought it would get a thorough clean and check, and I could rest assured I'd done the right thing before I was on my own so-to-speak. <br>

It was there for a week, I opened the box tonight, and the repair invoice says <br>

RPL SHUTTER MECHANISM, CKD COMMMUINCATION, and GENERAL CHECK & CLEAN</p>

<p>wow. Who'd a thunk?<br>

Just sharing.</p>

<p>I'm guessing they got so much bad press from this that they may be replacing shutters in any D600 (that's still under warranty) they receive.</p>

<p>Just had the same experience about 10 days ago. I sent in my almost-out-of-warranty D600 noting some light oval marks in the upper left corner, and despite a reply stating "no oil spots" the shutter appears to have been replaced. </p>

<p>With the shutter replacement, was the shutter actuation count reset to zero ?</p>

I had a fright. The file name seq was up to around 2700 when it went in. Upon return, I put a card in took a couple shots

and the file sequence was over 9000. Heart attack time. I took a JPEG and uploaded it to a shutter count website and it

was like 2830 activations, so my blood pressure returned to normal. I assume the tech uses a card for any number if

repairs and when it went in to my camera it reset the file sequence based on the last image on his card.

The actuation count was not reset as far as I can tell.
