Minor gridlines in photo taken by Nikon coolpix 3500

I also encountered the same problem with my Nikon COOLPIX P100. Fortunately, I found Nikon Photo Recovery software through Google search. It helped me to get back all the lost pictures and video. Read more: http://www.nikon-photo-recovery.com/ Best wishes!

Hi, I'd suggest using a tripod to reduce shake in photos.

Not easily. Once the date stamp is on the picture, those pixels are the same as any other pixel. You can edit the photos using photo editing software, the same way you might replace one person's face with another's.

it cant be fixed BUT it doesnt mess up your pics wen u print them off

The USB cables supplied with digital cameras are almost all miniUSB to standard USB. The small connector on the cable fits into the camera, but it must be oriented a certain way. If you flip the small end the wrong direction, it won't fit. And sometimes the connection is tight. You can see on the small USB plug that it isn't perfectly symmetrical.

In this case you have to just connect the camera to the computer go to My Computer double click on Removable Disk there u will see your picture folder u can just copy and paste it on ur computer....... Good Luck............

From the menu of the camera, you need to change and select the settings for the pictures. Some cameras have this option where it will take one or more picture automatically. Also check that the self timer is off.

I had the same problem with my CoolPix5400 and this resolved the issue.

I guess it is showing its age - nothing correctable camerawise But all correctable un the computer with a suitable image editor- do you work this way?

This appears to be a well known CCD problem, which Nikon acknowledges only for the COOLPIX 3100, 5700 and SQ models. Nikon denies the CCD problems on the 5400 are related, even though a Google search for this problem returns numerous results which claim the same defective Sony CCD sensor was used in the 5400 as was used in the 3100, 5700, and SQ models.
