Mine also BLOD treated already.

Conversion ... thinking about it. Probably wait a while for launch of D200 then decide.

Matt, can show one of your unprocessed photo from the D70i?

Hi guys,

Does BLOD mean "Blinking Light Of Death" somewhat like "Blue Screen Of Death" that Bill Gates passed on to us

u guys are scaring me!!!

But how much would they charge for repairs of it? if it's already modified?

they will charge 270 for repair if your camera is modified

Right on man, nothing you can do about it.

It just comes when it wants to and freezes your D70. Only thing to do is send in to Service Center where they'll replace the light metering FCB.

Too bad, D70 didn't inherit the Ctrl-Alt-Del keystroke from Micros**ks .... oops I meant Microsoft

Blinking Light Of Death

Hmmm, if the AA filter is replaced before the camera is sent for repair and if they can't tell that the camera has been opened, then it may not cost you anything. But if they can tell that it has been tempered with, than repairs for this issue would cost SG$350. A couple of D70 users who bought cheaper sets outside of SG found that out when they brought in their cameras for repair only to be told that digital cameras do not have international warranties.

Here're some shots, unprocessed except for the RAW conversion and resizing...
