Re: Can you live with RAW + JPG on XQD ?

I firmly believe that 10% of SRP ($200 in D500 case) restock fee should be charged for every return of an item in perfect working order. That would stop this madness of returning goods "... just because I can" in USA.

I gave up. First problems with the Lexar SDHC card errors. Problems with tuning lenses. Problem with SDXC write to card. I did a fine tune to the 17~55, and tuned it at 35mm. The shot with the batman car, the focus point was just between the top edge of the car, and part of the woman. Yes it looks a little front focused. But, considering the woman is a little out of focus, it is not just a little bit of oof blur, but very mushy, for lack of a better term. Now since I have had a difficult time with this camera, and my 30 day return period is nearing, I decided to pack it up and ship it back. This is the 6th Nikon DSLR that I have purchased. In the past I have had issues with 1 other body, a D300. After getting a new copy of that one, I realized it wasn't me, as the new one was perfect. I will get another D500. I will just have to wait until they are more readily available.

BTW, I do have NX-D, and can work with the raw files. I have also been a PS user since PS 3, Lightroom 1 to CC.

The camera has issues. Why continue to deal with it. What would you have done, if you found problems with your gear.

I am very, very easily amused.
