What’s Nikon’s warranty now? Top LCD on my Z6II is out, just noticed. Don’t have access to the paper work right not, got it from Adorama in Nov 2020.

OP’s talking about the screen on top of the camera that shows the settings.

Don't forget, many credit cards double your warranty if you pay in full on the CC. Get to finding that paperwork, you have a ticking clock here!

Will have to check it out, not the end of the world, rarely look at it, but annoying none the less and I like that its there for when I do happen to look... don't think I have the CC benefit but will check it out.

Nikon stopped honoring its 5-year warranty on its lenses and no doubt the result of higher repair volumes. Even with lens I bought new for $2800 and $12,300 I have had to pay for the repairs out of pocket when defects appreared with the electronics.

Let’s be clear. Nikon changed its warranty from 5 years to 1 year on new lenses sold in the US. If you purchased a lens with a 5 year warranty, Nikon honors that warranty. If you purchased a lens with a 1 year warranty, Nikon honors that warranty. Nikon never stopped honoring its warranties.

They did not honor that warranty on my 600mm f/4 lens that I bought with the 5-year warranty and that I spent $600 to have repaired with a failed autofocus motor this August. I could take them to court but I needed the lens back.

It still shows that having discontinued the 5-year warranty on lenses that Nikon has no confidence in their reliability. It is even worse with their "refurbished" cameras that have only a 90-day warranty provided by Nikon.

If one has a choice between buying a new lens with a 1-year warranty and a used lens with no warranty but at half the cost, the used lens is the smarter buy.

it had the 5-year warranty emblem on the box? along with your receipt and matching s/n they would have to honor it. it is a legal document unless of course there was mitigating circumstances that allowed/caused the warranty to be voided.
