Nikon D3x repaired

Nikon did a great job repairing my stalwart D3x. Great service that I really appreciate.

Having the D3x back, its imagery knocks my socks off after shooting the Canon 5D Mark II. The only negative was that I mistakenly thought I had turned quality back to NEF, but instead the camera was left on JPEG.

Now the D3x produces terrific quality JPEGs (Canon EOS JPEGs are crap), but boy am I peeved that I shot 200 JPEG images before detecting the problem (actually my observant companion on my photo tour noticed it!). And I really dislike having the sharpening and white balance “baked in”; I shoot assuming I can tweak those to my liking. Sh*t. Check your equipment before each shoot.
