In my personal experience, it's a bit difficult to focus in lowlight situations. If it's as dark as a room with very dim lights, then I do not recommend this. In addition, I try to keep the ISO at a max of 1600. If I have to, I will go up to 3200. The noise/grain is noticeable around 3200, and it is a bit noticeable even at 1600.

Mine did the same thing but pretty much all the way thru the zoom function. I sent it back and ordered the HS50EXR glad I did, zooming is real smooth, focus is faster ect. Well worth the extra cost.

The image at 1000x is dark and fuzzy. It does go that far but image quality is not that great, but for me, as a mere hobby, it is acceptable. It works best at the lower magnifications. It is still a very good scope for the money.

Due to the high F number of the magnifying zoom, slight movement of a manually held camera could cause a blurry photo, since the shutter speed will be lower in order to pass enough light onto the image plane.

There was an issue with a lot of D600 with the oil, but there were many 1000's that did not have the issue... My D600 was one of them, mine does not have any more or less dust/oil issue then any of my other DSLR's. If you do get one with the issue then Nikon will replace the shutter for free... or just get the D610 or D750.

What is your usual ISO setting? If you are not already, try shooting in ISO 80 or 100 and don't increase it unless when you hold the shutter button half way down to focus the view goes dark. Re focus, unless it is necessary to shoot immediately, hold the shutter button half way down and don't depress it further until you can see, either through viewfinder or on screen, that the scene is in focus. Other suggestions already given are to shut off digital zoom and leave it off, use compression setting L instead of M3 to greatly reduce the number of pixels lost, thus the quality of the picture.

The image should not be blurry. Have you checked to make sure there is nothing on the viewfinder area...there is a red dial that can change the focus but i wouldn't think it would be blurry even if that was off slightly.

Check your eye relief and your alignment but if that doesn't clear up the blur you might have to send it back

I tried both, sent this one back. There is noticeable difference in sharpness when zoomed in.

I think if you are going to zoom in and expect good resolution you should raise your shooting pixels way above 3. I was pleased with mine when I tried it. If you don't increase the pixels then if you need to blow up your picture it will seem grainy.

yes, at times the picture is a bit grainy. i am going to check out the manual. if i find a anything that helps i will let you know.

I have this kind of issue, but with my SX130 in macro mode. At first I thought it was the lighting, but I took an identical picture, identical position, settings, etc. with my Elph 300 HS, and no such problem. The 300 has actually been fantastic for me, images are much sharper and colors more vivid than the 130 even though I set them to identical settings. Thinking of trading the 130 in for either the Elph 500 or the SX230 - I want a P&S (want something more portable than my DSLR) with shutter and aperture controls with same (or better) image quality as the Elph 300 (and less than $300). Now just have to test both of them out first.

35mm I have gone through two units and micro swithces went bad on both. second one was out of warranty, so I had to trash it .

Are you 100% sure it was ISO 640 and not 6400? I think at 640, shooting at 1.8 with a high amount of grain is unusual for this camera- especially since the D700 has excellent high ISO performance. I don't start to really notice grain until I'm shooting at ISO 3200 or greater. Did you happen to zoom in to the photos? Which could make the grain more noticeable..? Oh yea, check to see if your sensor or camera lens is dirty.

I have the same problem with the autofocus for video recording (even when set to "Full AF"). It occurs mostly during zooming in and not as much when zooming out. Sometimes, after zooming in, it will lose the focus and then regain it or not at all at times. This problem has occurred in bright light and sun outdoors and indoors in decent and dim light.It's too bad since the quality (color and clarity) seems excellent.

No issue with the full 20x optical zoom. Suggest that you run a test under ideal condition i.e. with the camera on a tripod. You will get degradation when using the digital zoom at or near the max zoom.
