Dal 25 Luglio Nikon prenderà indietro gli esemplari incriminati da tale difetto e li sostituirà senza spese per il cliente. Nikon, molto umilmente, si scusa con i suoi consumatori e dichiara che in futuro non accadrà un problema simile.
In questo link é possibile, inserendo il seriale della macchina, sapere se é affetta o meno da questo difetti. Inoltre Nikon dichiara che se all'interno del foro di attaccato del treppiede é presente un bollino bianco, la macchina risulta essere stata controllata dalla casa e che quindi non presenterà tale problema.
Di seguito la nota in lingua inglese.
