george_mazzetti1 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Can the peeling rubber cover on the body of my D1x be repaired? Can the brassing be repaired? If so does anyone know where it can be sent for this work to be done along with a CLA. George Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmroc Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 George, I sent mine in to Nikon USA Mellville NY this past spring, and they replaced all the rubber, and CLA. I got it back in less than 10 days after i sent it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer531 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The finish on Nikon digital cameras seeme to be some type of powder coating . If it is I would think the camera would have to be completely disassembeld to refinish it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_viebey___orlando__ Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 For the record, I also had a bad scare with my D1x. Went to a function, and it was doing all kinds of whacky things. Not focusing sometimes, not opening shutter sometimes, giving strange errors. Happily, it's the backup, not my primary.... I thought it'd had a CPU failure of some kind and was starting to sweat a big repair bill. Kept playing with it. Finally went "hey, this is sorta like if the battery is bad", but battery didn't really show that. And, my voltmeter said the voltage was right. Hmmmm. Just for fun, bought another battery, which 100% fixed my problems. So, another piece of advice... Like all battery thingies, if it's acting weird, try it on AC, or try another battery.....
