Good idea Robert. Would you suggest I use the 50mm without moving the tripod or move it closer to approximate the same coverage as the 120mm?

Not sure really, probably arguable either way, I think I would simply leave the camera locked up on the tripod and expose at the same apertures again with the second lens. I only suggested it to give some sort of comparison really with what is considered to be a reasonably good middle of the road lens if you see what I mean. If the planar is outstanding across the board, the 50 might tell a different story over the range of apertures.

Have to say that ultimately as Eric says it is about the picture not whether or not you are getting the ultimate sharpness from the lens. I doubt many people could visually spot the difference anyway!!

Back to JK's original question... As one of the earliest D600 users here I was irritated much by the dust/oil issue until I scratched the LPF during cleaning in June. Unlike previous sensors, the LPF used in D600 cannot be replaced alone, so the entire sensor was replaced instead (a paid service!). To eradicate the dust/oil problem, Nikon also replaced the shutter unit free of charge.

Eric said: "Thats why I WANT the more modestly valued Fuji to work for me. Its images are as good as the D3...its just its ergonomics and tardiness for action shots that let it down a bit." It was for this reason and the low weight that I decided to invest in the Fuji XPro1. The quality of image I get is every bit as good as my D3S but it weighs with lens just 1kg compared to twice that for the equivalent Nikon kit. When you are walking or scrambling on rough paths the extra weight and bulk of the Nikons is a distinct disadvantage. That said for action photography (sports and dance) the Nikon wins hands down! Right tools for the job.

Peter sent me some early images from his D600 and they are very good and with the small size of the camera I will probably be tempted to release my D3 or D700 probably the D700, so the D600 will work with the D3S and D3.

jk I came across this Nikon 10 pin to MC-DC2 adaptor for $10 US which might ease some concerns about the D600 being compatable with other 10 pin devices. This seller has various configurations and I'm ordering one for my MC-36 remote timer/cable release ;~) http://www.ebay.com/itm/NIKON-MC-DC2-jack-to-MC-30-plug-Remote-Convert-Adapter-/250725746205?pt=Camera_Camcorder_Remotes&hash=item3a606b461d#ht_5875wt_1162

I had a look at that cable but I think the polarity of the socket is wrong for my accessories but it lead me to this cable which looks good. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Shutter-Remote-Terminal-Convert-Adapter-Cord-MC30F-DC2M-/330495700663?pt=Camera_Camcorder_Remotes&hash=item4cf3142eb7 Thanks very much. I have ordered one to test on my friends D7000.
