Hi,
I am thinking about upgrading my D Premier to the 250 Expert Pro and sooner or later upgrade to the 1000.
Do the upgraded D Premiers (to the 250 Expert Pro) look the same like current 250 Expert Pros? has there been a change of finish?
Best regards
Andreas

When you use the upgrade programme the case is not changed, you keep the same one that you sent off. All current Expert Pro models are a dark chrome finish whereas D Premiers are a light chrome colour so it will look a little different from the current models. You can pay extra to have the case changed but the cost of doing this is quite high.

No, they don't change the case. I own a formerly D-Premier with a white finish, with large the letters "D-Premier" printed on the removable cable part of the case. Even this they don't change so my now 250 Pro CI has still "D-Premier" printed on it...

Thank you so much. I actually have no problem with the look of the D Premier:
just wanted to know, if the silver finish differs and if a upgrade to mono would make sense after it.

I got the D-Premier back from the upgrade. I had the possibility to compare the D250 look to the D-Premier: it indeed differs to much.
I will search for another d-premier now, so I can have a 1000 Pro at the end.

Is there a copper bottom plate in the upgraded 250pro?
