Originally posted by distudio I just tested my camera, it's better but it looks like they adjusted the sensor position in my case as images are not nearly as well aligned with the base of the camera as they were before. I'm not impressed. At least before there was one thing I could trust, the image alignment relative to the base used to be 0.04 degree now it's closer to 0.46 degree.
Distudio, I've been tracking this thread for some time now. I notice you're in Sydney. Was it CR Kennedy that "fixed" your tilting issue ? The reason I ask is because I contacted their Sydney and Melbourne offices and they seemed surprised there was an issue....like it was their first time hearing about it. They said send it in and will take about 2 to 3 weeks to repair. I'm going overseas on mid-Feb, my warranty expires on week-1 Feb, should I risk sending it to them now ?
I did have a bad experience with them back in 2005 with my DS "re-focusing" after focus was locked. I sent it, they send it back saying no problem found, I persisted, then eventually it was fixed.....but it took ages!!!!
The other "issue" I asked them was about a "sizzling" noise, or sound of boiling water in a pot when taking long exposures. I've read in alot of places that it's the SR. Can anyone (everyone) let me know if yours makes this type of noise? Again.....the people I spoke to in CR Kennedy seemed surprised by it.....given it's been discussed in many forums for months.
