<p>I have two of them since April (very first samples). No AF issues but Yes green tint. A bit more on LCD and less but obvious into files. Not exactly green but yellowish-green. Corrected by M2&B1 in Auto WB settings but annoying :( .</p>

<p>I think Canon is more elastic in terms of warming the image between color profiles. I'm satisfied with Nikon's Neutral color profile for portraits & wedding but Nikon does not forgive you if you play with standard profile especially when you live and shoot in a North Europe country. I shoot weddings for 15 years many of them with EOS 1 but actually I'm a Nikon owner and user. No, Canons are not warmer than Nikons. They render red color in a way that comes hyperbolic but they are bluer and greener than Nikons at start point settings. And definitely (in my opinion) Nikon <strong>lenses</strong> are warmer than Canons.</p>

<p>Ι suspected that this could be the solution but I did not try it. Now I will, cause I am disapointed with this behavior. At my last work I put Sb900 in a bracket connected with a pc cord and pocket wizard on the hot shoe. It worked fine, but i have no TTL, neither AF beam. The built in AF led for low light works very slow and many shots went lost.</p>

<p>And yes you're rigth hammering was not the solution. The problem insists and now it became worse. It happens with SB900 and the Metz 54i d and !! with built-in popup flash when I work triggering SB900 remotely. I want to avoid Nikon service's not confirming the problem because you must work with it for a short period to confirm it. I will remain till the posts here and anywhere became many enough..</p>

<p>Hallo...I'm from Greece, and I have exactly the same problem. I tried the combination between SB 900 and my second D80 and after some shots the same problem occurs. As I notice, the space left for flash gun's shoe to slide is much fatter than gun's thickness. So...please don't laugh, I tried to repair it using a little hammer. It took me about one hour of hitting precisely trying to avoid any damage of the contacts and other materials.<br>

After all, I have a system working properly since now, one week after the "operation"..:)</p>
