Nikon USA will fix the dust/oil issue in all D600 cameras for free (even if out of warranty)

Who said class action lawsuits do not work? Just few hours after I reported that the first D600 class action lawsuit was filed in California federal court, Nikon USA published a new technical service advisory where they announced a free cleaning and free shutter replacement for all D600 owners, even those with expired warranty. You can send your camera even if you do not have a problem. To schedule your service, go to this website. My only concern is that this advisory is valid only for the US, hopefully other Nikon subsidiaries will follow. Update: Nikon Japan, Nikon China, Nikon Canada and other subsidiaries have also issued similar service advisories – this is global fix.

New Nikon D600 cameras are still available on Amazon for slightly over $1,500. Check also the refurbished D600 prices on eBay.

Here is the full text of the service advisory:

Nikon is rumored to release a new D4 firmware update. The new version could be out as early as tomorrow. I have no details on what will be included, but I doubt we will see some of the D4s upgrades to trickle down to the D4.

The Nikon D4 memory card issue (when using the cameras with any of the SanDisk Extreme Pro CF 160MB/s and Sony XQD S cards at the same time) has been fixed by SanDisk and do not require a firmware update.
