    Hi guys,

    I'm wondering is anyone would have a ballpark figure on how much a service/sensor clean costs form SLR Repair Centre in Meath. I can't find an email address for them and I'm out of the country at the minute and can't call them until I get back next week.

    Thanks,

    Pete.

    hi pete

    I seem to remember it was around e50 plus courier if required.

    I half think that if it's for your d3 they may end up doing it free...

    thanks for that. My D3 is out of its 1 year warranty so I'll have to pay I think. €50 is cheap enough to get it cleaned and serviced. It needs it. Its travelled about 50,000 miles with me already. I checked the shutter count, I thought it was near 45-50k but it was only at 29k which is way less than I thought.

    Thanks again.

    Pete.

    I got a 2 year Nikon warranty with mine...not sure how that worked. I may have had to register to get the 2nd year...maybe the same with you?

    but yeah, I need to get mine done too, and my lenses.

    I'm just sick or removing bad dust spots from the corners at f11 upwards. Dry cleaning can only do so much! I'll check my box when I get home and see about he extra warranty for the 2nd year. It was bought in Berminghams so it shouldn't be too hard to find out.

    Berminghams give 1 free sensor clean with all new DSLR cameras they sell. It is not part of the Warranty so time is unimportant.

    Thanks for that!!!! I'll remember to use that later I think. I want to get it serviced though. Just for being pulled in and out of a heavily packed cam back for 15 months a small piece of rubbe is showing signs of lifting and I want to get it fixed as well. The Berminghams free clean will definitlely be put to use!

    Thanks!!
