Oh Happy Day !
I have received my camera back from Nikon.
I mailed my D70 through UPS on 12/29 from Nokomis, FL. (Daughter of the moon, Nokomis) and received it back on 1/13. It looks brand new and the included letter indicated that they had made the following modifications:
- We updated the firmware of your camera to the latest version (A:Ver.2.00/B:Ver.2.00).
- Changes made for this version:
* Performance of the 5-area AF system has been improved (Dynamic area and Closest subject AF-area modes). I haven't looked into this yet.
* Changes have been made to the design of menu displays. The display does look different somehow, bigger maybe.
* Page-size settings can now be applied from the camera with direct printing from PictBridge-campatible printer.
There were a few others that were pretty small and of not much concern to me.
They didn't give any explaination as to what the trouble was with my camera, but, the cost of the repair, cleaning, and new firmware was $0, even though it was out of warranty. Not a bad resolution I think.
Anyway, I feel whole again.
Hiawatha
By the shores of Gitche Gumee,
By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
Stood the wigwam of Nokomis,
Daughter of the Moon, Nokomis.
Dark behind it rose the forest,
Rose the black and gloomy pine-trees,
Rose the firs with cones upon them;
Bright before it beat the water,
Beat the clear and sunny water,
Beat the shining Big-Sea-Water.
