Nikon has released a service advisory for its D600 digital SLR. Based on user complaints, it addresses the widely-reported issue of dust and dirt accumulation on the camera’s sensor. In the advisory, Nikon has belatedly acknowledged that at the point where dust becomes visible in images from the D600, ‘removal may be difficult using normal measures’ and advises customers who have exhausted conventional cleaning options to ‘consult your nearest Nikon service center’, whose technicians will ‘examine the camera thoroughly, and service it as needed.’ Click through for more details, and links to the service advisory.
