If in the following few weeks there is a glitch in the camera which I doubt, I will exchange it for a glitchless one. I would both times insist on an unopened box. I don't anticipate any problems. I also agree it is probably the best slr every made. Nikons are fine they don't interest me, they are boring. This is not opinion this is the basic nature of the universe that anyone in their right mind would be in tune with. Mark :-) Rabiner
