Nikon has issued a service notice recalling some Z8 cameras. When asked, the company issued a statement saying that there have been ‘rare cases where a lens cannot be mounted to a camera and locked into position.’
The statement reads:
‘Nikon has issued a technical service advisory for Z 8 camera users, due to rare cases where a lens cannot be mounted to a camera and locked into position. We have identified a range of serial numbers with which the issue may occur, and will service the affected cameras at no cost to the consumer. For more information and to check your serial number, please visit Nikon’s support page.’
Nikon appears to have narrowed down the problem to a specific batch of cameras and has set up a web page where users can check whether their camera is affected. If so, the company says it will rectify the issue at no cost to the user.
