Lately I've been getting an error message (Chr) after reformatting my card. I need to take the card out of the camera and start over again. Then it works. I've...
I have seen the same thing, even had a message like "this card can not store images" , reset the card and it works fine. Starting to worry. I have a D70, not a...
Probably not fully related, but I have had this error when I've used the CF card in my computer and deleted only some or accidentally renamed files then stuck...
... I need to take the card out of the camera and start over again. ... until now. John, Here are two messages I posted to this reflector a few months ago...
Greetings: At about $250 to repair a D70 I'm not sure its worth it. You can buy D70 & D70s used bodies for about the same amount. The new generation DSLR...
I have been using my D70 with the built it flash to take a few quick macro pix with my 60mm 2.8 D macro Nikkor. When I use fully auto, I get a well exposed...
Could the flash be shooting over the subject? You say you are at 2 inches. Have you tried backing off a couple inches? I'll be interested in hearing other...
I've been shooting with my D70s & several different manual focus macro lenses over the last 3 years. I have a Micro Nikkor 55mm F2.8, a Vivitar close focusing...
You can look at the link to my Flickr account under my name for examples of what you can do with the older macro lenses...You don't need the latest & greatest...
Bill, was your ISO set to Auto while shooting aperture priority? All else being equal, it sounds like you've run out of gain by using f22 when the shutter...
... Two problems here: 1. per Nikon's specs at URL: <http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/ProductDetail.page?pid=1987> the minimum focus distance for this...
OK, to answer some comments and to shed some more "light" on the situation, here is more. First, using full manual, 100% flash power and f22 at the roughly 2 ...
... False. It does work in Aperture priority mode (which is what I use perhaps 90% of the time). These two pix (cropped and resized for the Web) from 2 days...
Thad, and others, Thanks for the info. Based on Thad's response, I just tried a test, and the &*^^&* thing worked just fine this time, even at the closet, 1:1,...
... Well, I'm glad to read that it worked; seriously. :-) I was going to suggest we compare D70 settings to see what might be different. It's a pain to do so,...
Here's something interesting I didn't know until just now. There's both a Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 AF-S and a Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 AF-D. I have the AF-D. The AF-S is...
Hi, Has anyone used the Nikon Optics Maintenance Kit to clean a lens or a camera sensor? I'm especially curious about the Speck Grabber tool. The kit is...
I don't see where it says it's for sensors & I'd be leery of using it on one...All you really need is a good blower like a Gittos rocket blower , a microfiber...
Thanks for the input. I probably should have mentioned in my first email that I've had a chance to read the instructions that come with the kit and they...
I've never had to resort to anything more than a Gittos air rocket to remove dust from my sensor & I change out lenses frequently...I do have another prouct...
Interesting. I did a Google search for information on this product, and everything I'm seeing is indicating that it's intended for use on optics only, typical...
I have to send my Nikon D200 and SB-800 in to Nikon for inspection and repair because it took a fall when my son knocked over my tripod. Now that it's going in...
I can agree with this... I too made my jump into digital SLR with the D70s, then after a year and half jumped to the D200. When I want to pull out a camera to...
Sorry to hear about the scratch. You didn't mention the most obvious solution to a dirty sensor when one is hesitant and/or a total novice at going into the...
First remember the marks and dust are actually on the low pass filter just in front of what is actually the sensor. it's just that everything is considered one...
I am going to sell my Nikon D2X. The camera is in excellent condition and has a little more than 12000 shutter actuations. Included are the battery, charger,...
I found this information on Nikonians.org so just in case some of you here aren't members there I thought I'd forward this info. Best Buy is having an online...
