Nikon D50 Flashes Err and clicks

Nikon D50 use to work great. I owned it for about three years.
I now only flashes 'ERR' (9 times) when trying to take a photo and the camera clicks internally. It was working and then not, did not drop it.

Hi..
This screen shows areas of the photo that are overexposed slightly.
It flashes them to help you.
You get to this screen by pressing the up or down arrows when displaying the pictures you have taken.

To change it just press the up arrow when the camera is showing the screen until you get a display without flashing.

Once you have done this the display will be steady.
If you get any other screen in future you may have accidently pressed the arrow again.
Just cycle thru the displays to get back to steady.

thank u
rate me!!

Err on top of display on camera

Unfortunately, this probably won't be a good situation. Most of the time the ERR(or) message you're getting shows when there's an internal problem, and most likely a shutter error. Not an uncommon problem with the older consumer models like D40, D50, etc.

Err popping up on top of bar when try to take a picture flash does not come up and also when looking in it also appears inside

When a Nikon camera says Err, something is wrong with the memory card. Perhaps it is not inserted correct. Or not a card inside at all. Perhaps you can't write to the card or it should be formatted.
When you have a Err, the camera won't do a thing, to avoid the user can think he is shooting pictures and the camera won't save one.

I have a Nikon D50 with a Err message and I can't take pictures anymore. What would be the cause for this? Eric

"err" is a cmara malfunction. If the camera has a hardware reset button, give that a try. If that does not work, then examination by an authorized Nikon Service Center is advised.

"Err" message

ERR is like saying to your doctor your sick. It covers a very wide host of problems. Only Nikon once the camera is connector to there computer can give you a better diagnosis.

Flashing "Err" message with a code 999. Can't shoot pictures.

Try resetting the camera.

First a soft reset is to just replace the battery. If that doesn't work try a hard reset - on the bottom the other side to the battery flap.

Nikon D50 blinking "Err" message

Make sure the lens is mounted fully (give it a little twist to see if the error clears). Also, check the gold contacts inside the body, where the body touches the gold "points" on the lens, to make sure they are clean. A pencil eraser is a good cleaning device for these contacts. I hope this solves it for you.

Err 999

You can reset the camera 2 ways... soft reset is to remove and replace the battery. To hard reset, there is a microswitch on the bottom of the camera body opposite from the battery compartment. Youll have to reset the camera's clock if you do this. If it still doesnt work, have a Nikon authorized camera shop look at it.

Nikon D100 randomly has "err" code flashing

You need a new shutter box.
It may be worth cleaning the contacts on both camera and lens.
Clean the contacts in the lens mount using a fiberglass "pencil" designed specifically for cleaning contacts. These are available at just about any photo supply store/firm.

send it to nikon. seem like a common problem
