Yamil, If you haven't seen it already, Rob Galbraith has written a superb piece titled, "Selecting a Compact Flash Card for the Nikon D1x," at http://www.robgalbraith.com/reports/2001_07_04_compactflash.html. He tests many of the cards and it is an interesting, objective, and educational piece. Alan

Hoodman service?? What service???
I just called them to find out where my Hoodcap was??? Well, I was shipped over a week ago, via USPS!! Ok, fine with me!! Where is it??? HTy're in California, I'm in Nebraska!! 9 days for a USPS package?? Something's wrong!! I asked if they could send another one, PRIORITY MAIL!! Their response....NO, let's wait another day!! How long am I sopposed to wait till they send me another one?? 2, 3 weeks?? I actually asked to PAY for another one and have it sent today via USPS PRIORITY MAIL, they gave me all sorts of excuses!! I know about Plastics moulding & manufacturing, this picece costs pennies to pour (I know the mold cost thousands), they could have sent me another one The way I wanted!! After all I'm the customesr & I'M RIGHT!!! I wonder if they would like to be treated this way themselves by one of their suppliers?? Y

Yamil, Interesting response from Nikon re: the Japanese language problem¡ I also asked how long the wait is going to be for regular shipments of the camera¡ Don¡¯t ya love it¡ a ¡°FEW¡± users!!!!????? Here it is copied from their mail to me¡ Dear Tim Dardis: The D1X presales were quite numerous. We have heard about this reverting to Japanese problem from a few users and have reported it to Nikon engineering offices in Japan for examination. No other information is available at this time. OK, guys I got my empty box from Nikon!! I might return my D1X next monday, depending on turnarround time!! I'll call Nikon NY & ask them to see if they comit to a certain turnarround time!! If they do, I'll post it here. Hasa anybody else received theirs?? Y To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: Nikon_D1-unsubscribe@... Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to the Yahoo!

D1X return box!!
Yes, my camera got to the dealer yesterday, supposedly with the fix. It was supposed to have shipped about a week ago until they stopped shipments. So I guess those of us who didn't get one of the first batch had to wait an extra week to get our cameras, but just to make things fair all you early birds get to send yours back for a week!:-) --Dave

[Nikon_D1] Re: D1X return box!!
Right you are Dave! But I won't send mine until they tell me a "real" turarround time. to this day there's 5 or 6 versions, depending on who you ask. Did you pick it up already? How do you like it?? Y onelist@... wrote:

I'm Eating Crow with Hoodman inc:-(!
Hello folks, I guess I want to make a public apology to the fine people at Hoodman Inc.!! Last week, while in a panic I posted a rather strong worded statement about Hoodman inc. I was proven wrong, by their professional response to my , well... WHINING!!! First, Hoodman offered to send me a FREE Hoodcap for my D1X, NEXT DAY RED , NO CHARGE!! I Respectfully declined of course, it wasn't their fault that the USPS didn't deliver my stuff!! They sent me the Hoodcap, & I'm happy:-) Now, two weeks later, the USPS still hasn't delivered my first Hoodcap to me!!! Well, Hoodman WILL send me another Hoodcap, to replace the first one, Priority Mail, & If I ever receive the first one, after it comes from it's trip around the world, I can keep that one too!! I have to take this opportunity to commend the folks at Hoodman & apologize for my outburst!! They're a company that deserves our patronage. Thanks Hoodman, & I'm really sorry!! Yamil PS, on a happy note, the D1X's are hitting again!!:-) No japanese this time!! I sent mine today, & I left a lexar card inside!! OOOPS!!! I hope I get it back!! Y

Any members interested in the D1H??
2
I was wondering, with all this frezy with the D1X, I haven't heard too many comments on the D1H. Am I the only one that considers the D1H a great backup for the D1X?? If the old D1 is a great backup, IMHO the D1H is a better one!! Opinons?? Y

Welll, It looks like Christy is sending me the D1X on my Christmas list! While it cost me a left leg¡ I am getting what I need! I¡¯ll let you know my excitement level when it gets here¡ right now excitement is overshadowed by HOLYCRAPTHISISALOTOFMONEY!!! Later, Tim
