Limping Along with the Nikon P7000

As it turns out, the majority of the dial function still works! I pronounce the “U2” and “U3” position as both dead despite the fact they do come alive once in a blue moon.

The frequent toggling between those buttons across her 15K shutter iterations might have been the root cause of what I am seeing here. The entire lens barrel was completely replaced once, among other components within and I would say its somewhat a special relationship I am still keeping it with me. It has gone to quite a few countries around the world and I would hate to see her degenerate into my boys’ toy camera.

Let’s resume shooting with it until a full 100K shutter count (or when Nikon P8000 is announced) is reached, shall we?
