Just for the record: I was one of those who were annoyed by the never-ending left-focus-issue. My two pence: the d800/e competes in quality with cameras like the Leica S or Pentax medium format, cameras which are, with lenses, 3-7 times as expensive. It is a complex piece of equipment, I certainly needed time to get familiar with it - still in process, in fact. There are no guaranties that there will be no production mistake, but chances are your camera will be perfect, and particularly well suited for landscape and the like.
