Camera caught in rain shower for short period of time. Still takes photos, but LCD screen images are upside down and backwards. I can still operate menu items. Is there a mirror image setting or is the moisture still having an affect on LCD circuits? DS

Okay, what your going to need to do here, D not shoot the tech is bring this to a camera shop.
The issue is with the video output to the lcd display not the display itself. Nikon is aware of this happening due to extended use of the display but they will not fix it because it would be out of warrenty.
Your looking at $45 in parts alone labor I would set at $15-25 per hour. So if this camera cost $100 bucks then you would look at alternitives of course.
Please do not shoot the tech, We are not charging you here we are lookingfor you execlent feedback and ratings in exchange for the advice. Thanks
Hi Al not sure if i can help here but will try. Ive not owned the D50 but i have the feeling the highlights function is similar to other cameras in the Nikon range.
On your cursor when viewing an image, just press down on the cursor maybe once or twice to remove the highlights .This is just a pointer for you like the histogram.
Now it seems like you may have damaged the sensor and will not collect enough light.
Try setting the camera to A = aperture priority and take a shot in bright light...no flash.
Are the images still dark ?
If so raise your iso to 800 and shutter speed to 1/250 at F5.6 aperture in mode S =shutter priority and take the shot in bright conditions.
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.
NatD, The D50 and indeed most SLR digital cameras [ I have a D40 ] does not allow you to take pictures using the LCD display ... this is by design, you are meant to use the viewfinder and the image you see through it is straight through the lens via a mirror block [ called a reflex pentamirror or prism ]. When the mirror is down such that you can see the image in the viewfinder it is obscuring the sensor [ the bit that takes the picture ] and when you take a shot the mirror lifts and the picture is recorded. Its this reason that DSLR's dont use the LCD to shoot, however there are a few now available that do let you do this, such as olympus, new panasonic one and higher end Nikon and Canon cameras. Hope this explains it without getting too detailed!
Hi, the only thing I can see in the manual is on page 52 (below). You can scroll through the information provided using the up & down arrow keys on the multi-selector button.
Scrolling though to the basic file info should give a clearer view. Perhaps if you select this option the next time you view it will default to it? I don't have the camera to try!
Please update the question & let us know if the information given was useful to you - Good Luck!
