Well now, it happen to me, the battery latch broke! Where would it get me if I complain, eh; I have had this camera ten years and it is still working. It is...
Hi July & All, Life eternal is what this group has! LOL It is funny that you pick up the bristles, I haven't but will add them to my list because I often...
Hi Guy's. Having some great fun using the E990, but would have a whole lot more if only I could use the timer facility on distance shots. I shake. Oh boy I...
It has been a long time since I had one, but I still do have a Coolpix 8400. As I recall with the 990and just confirmed with the 8400macro mode permits a...
Hio Larry. Thanks for pointing out what should have been the obvious. I had already found out from practise, that the Macro mode only 'really39; came in when the...
My pleasure. Make great photographs. I have found both continuous mode of my various Nikons as well as interval timers as wonderful sources of images to...
Just posted 16 of my photos to the Photo Gallery and looking at them, somehow cannot see them as really 'Macro39;. I have used the E990 'Macro39; mode correctly,...
Back in 990 days, I had the Nikon lenses. The wide-angle would focus right up to the front element! I have sharp shots of flowers that were actually touching...
Hi Larry. Thanks for the most interesting reply, which incidentally has just saved me 70. I shall no longer be pursuing an interest in the Raynox DCR-250. I...
Ah ha - I've just set my 990 up for a night's shooting using the remote at 4 mins intervals. I also have a 4500, which is a bit lighter/smaller/quicker. But...
Walt My wife still uses 'her' 990' to shoot her jewelery & stuff for her website and I have lost track of all the bits & pieces that go with it. I did spend ...
Such is the fate of any camera-specific forum. Growing volume of postings as the time approaches for the camera to ship. Floods of questions from people trying...
OK, if it would be interesting, I will give a chronicle of my first decade and a little since I bought the 990 and began shooting digitally. For me, the 990...
Hi Guys, Its nice to see some activity here. I have moved on in digital photography but I kept my 990 around, “just in case” Its ready and waiting on the...
Wow! Got up this morning and recieved a most wonderful shock. What a terrific response, far more than I expected believe me. Larry, that was a beautiful...
Digital photography is the biggest leap since photography began in the early 19th century, eclipsing roll film and Kodachrome as a revolutionary change. It has...
Larry, you are without doubt a a very knowledgeable and competent photographer and to read your posts as I have done, is to see immediately that you know what...
If only we could stimulate the owners of working E990's to set aside one day, just one day, to take one pic and put it into a slot, maybe labeled 'E990 Users'...
In the Photos section, Yahoo adds yet more compression and keeps the images small. Most internet connections can now handle 12801024 images quickly and ...
Why not? 4 me it would be easier to point to my flickr link- http://www.flickr.com/photos/19754853@N07/ All of the shots in Spain were taken with my 990. I...
Hi Guy's. I know many of you long to air your E990 and the idea of having a competition to see which of us can prove superior in the use of this beautiful...
May I suggest you use the files area, and create a folder for each contest. The Photos area does terrible things to images and the files area allows one to...
<p>Hello friend.<br>I refused to continue depending on other people this was my ticket to a free ride now I vacation four times a year you would excell at...
I have a coolpix 990 and the battery that keeps track of the date and time and other setting is dead, so what can I do to replace this battery? Harley...
Hi Desperate to get at least one of my 990 up and working and determined to counter the power problem. Shuts down even with new batteries. My thinking is the...
I don’t believe that will fix your problem because I have a coolpix 990 and the onboard battery is dead and it does not keep date and time, it always goes...
... Yeah same here- It is a headache to reset the date/time after each battery change, but no real alternative. Interesting thing in my case, the date/time...
It's not the internal battery that's causing the problem. That is used to keep the date and settings intact between battery changes. ... [Non-text portions of...
