Great story and documentation!
Nikon should definitely pay this guy a BIG fee for the story and proof of nikon durability.

Hmnn. I saw this exact same set of photographs at the LensRentals Blog, except the story revolved around a person who returned a damaged lens and how insurance pays. Makes me wonder about the bona fides of this story - though not much doubt about the images.

Andy, I also saw this on Lens Rentals blog (which is great if you're into gear, btw). If you read through all the comments (I think on page 8), both Roger Cicala from Lens Rentals and Andrew Kane - the original poster - respond. The stuff was fine at first, but the lens mount was bent and got worse. It was rental equipment from Lens Rentals, and Andrew received new stuff from Lens Rentals once he realized that there was an issue.
