Many other users have reported AF problems but certainly not every D800 user has.

It would have taken them literally seconds to test and find whether or not there are AF problems.

if shooting a flat surface (it's totally my guess here).I wonder how many people with D3 and D700 test this AF problem, or Canon guys

I now tend to think that ALL d800 up to US serial numbers 3035xxx have left AF problem

Also, this only happens for 24mm F2.8, longer focal length has less to no AF problem

then all I can say is: test the body right after you get it and if it has AF problems DO NOT bother to get it repaired by Nikon

Thanks to them it is one of the latest production with the serial number 3010xxxx, no green screen or af problems, works amazing

D7000 was the only latest Nikon where I experienced AF problems in low light.

IF OUR KNOWN D800 PROBLEM "MISALIGNMENT OF AF PROBLEM" EXIST ON YOUR CAMERAAsked 3 times, that since my camera is at the authorized Nikon service, that it be checked for the Nikon acknowledged sensor misalignment of AF problem.

The image quality of the D800 is extraordinary, no doubt, but the copy I got (SN 308XXXX) had serious AF problems, and not just the infamous left AF issues

Obviously this AF problem is not yet completely fixed at the production level and Nikon continues to produce D800s with defective AF and hope people will accept it

Will forget about the AF problem and go out take some great pictures!Wish you best of luck in getting the D800 that you can love!*Some quick update on my test with D7000 AF using ruler approach, tested with 50mm F1.8 at F1.8.When the center AF point focus perfectly, both left and right AF point

I received has the notorious left side AF problem that has been widely reported on in dpreview and other photograpohy forums.

All three had the left AF problem

more bodies with FoCal and more copies of 14-24 and 24-70 AFS lenses and all new 4 bodies have SEVERE left AF problem

Nikon truely shines with its built-in flash as it comes quite handy for fill-in flash

I did not at first and my images were not as sharp as I wanted them to be

If the camera worked as it should it would be wonderful, however in my limited experience it doesn't

I was bit surprised, that there was no signs of use, everything works as it should be

Until I can afford the 85/1.4, this glass will remain my "portrait" lens.70-200 VR: DX just as good as on the D200.

the shutter sound is a little different from what i am used to ... as in a little louder.... kind of nervous to use it at my first wedding lol but it is a super great camera!

After using the D700 for several years, I really miss the autofocus M-C-S switch
