apparently it was such a common problem (so much so that it had to have been a manufacturing defect) and my letter pointing this out was enough to convince them to fix it for free.

thank heaven as it would have been a $400+ repair on a used camera i had just paid $1500 for.

edit: NIKON, not nik, fixed my camera. lol

It was a Nikon D2H. A PROFESSIONAL digital SLR that cost over $2,000 used. And it broke after less than 3000 pictures (meter went out).

I would have been really pissed if they charged me to fix that. It was a $400 repair out of warranty.
