Nikon finally issued a notice today that they will replace Faulty Nikon D600 with with a new D600 or an equivalent model (Nikon D610) for free is the problem is not fixed…
Because Nikon takes this matter very seriously, we will continue to offer users of the D600 a special service with which cameras are inspected, cleaned, and if necessary, shutter and related components are replaced free of charge, even after the product warranty has expired. However, if a number of multiple granular black spots are still noticeable in images captured with a D600 upon which the above service has been performed several times, Nikon will replace it with a new D600 or an equivalent model.
So finally they will fix or replace Nikon D600 even if they are out of warranty.
Nikon D610 announced few days ago, As we have said earlier there are no major difference between these camera, take a look below at specification comparison table,
As you can see there is no major difference between these two camera, both shares same core specification and body design.
After a quick research and reading detailed specification + press release of both the camera we found that…
1. Oil issue solved
2. New “Quiet continuous” mode is introduced – After activating the silent continuous shooting mode you can capture 3 fps with limited mechanical noise.
3. Improved white balance with D610
Verdict: New users should buy Nikon D610 camera but we never recommend D600 users to spend $2K and buy the same camera, D600 users should wait for D620 (OR D610 successor).
High ISO JPEG comparison published at fotospekter (slovenian website), In Nikon D600 we can see the noise started from ISO 6400 and rapidly increases as we move forward, the Noise level of Canon 6D is well maintained at ISO 12800.
If we look at previous comparison and this one (above) one thing is clear, the High ISO JPEG Images of Canon 6D is better than Nikon D600. Also see Specification comparison review of Canon 6D vs Nikon D600.
Canon 6D vs. Nikon D600 High ISO Test done by focus-numerique, the High ISO test result was as expected, the Canon 6D images have less noise at high ISO compared to Nikon D600.
The JPEG engine or Digic V image processor of Canon is advance and remove noise at High ISO better than Nikon D600, we have no comments about RAW file (you can download the RAW files at Focus Numerique and judge yourself).
Canon 6D have more standard ISO range but Nikon D600 have better AF system, See the specification comparison review of Canon 6D vs Nikon D600 also see recent updates about Nikon D600 sensor dust issue.
Toronto-based artist Kyle Clements D600 dust time-lapse video viewed more than 3K people around world, Kyle decided to do capture 1000 shot again without changing the lens, but this time D600 pointed straight down,
The results aren’t nearly as dramatic this time around. in fact, this time around, it hardly looks like a timelapse video with 1000 frames.
Nikon D600 Sensor Dust (and Oil) Time-lapse created by Kyle Clements, the video gives you details how oil and dust cover D600 sensor after 1000 shots without leaving home or changing the lens.
Camera and shot setting: Brand new Nikon D600, 50mm 1.8D lens, and Keep in mind that photographer is not changing lenses; all this dust is coming from inside the camera.
Lot of users complaining about the Nikon D600 sensor dust issue, now dpreview also confirmed that the new sensor attracts more dust compared to other DSLRs,
An issue that has been reported widely on the web concerns the unusual frequency with which the D600 attracts dust and/or residue on its sensor, particularly in the upper left area of an image, which of course corresponds to the bottom right portion of the actual sensor. And sure enough, shortly after we received our review sample and began our studio testing we found we had to conduct a rudimentary non-invasive sensor cleaning.
We can only speculate at this point as to the cause of the issue. What we can say is that simply blowing air did not remove all of the debris; a wet clean was required, suggesting that some contaminant may have found its way onto the sensor. We are of course, pursuing this issue with Nikon directly, and will update this review as more information comes to light.
Till now we have no reaction from Nikon, may be the next batch of camera will have modified sensor design, we will update you as we get any new information.
