Screws on camera showing rust

Any of you have rust showing on your camera body screws?  I do and not sure what I can do about this.  How can this be stopped?

I'm not sure, maybe send an email to Nikon service and see what they recommend?....:unsure:

Why so serious?

I'm guessing your camera is out of warranty, which means Nikon isn't going to do much for you.   Do you live near the ocean?

Did you open up the camera at one point?  Perhaps you scraped the the protective coating off.  I bet Nikon would send you (for a fee) new screws.

I lost the cover off the back of my D70. Called Nikon to buy another and they sent me one for free.
