Nikon Coolpix 3200: I think my SD slot reader is broken.

Thu, 27 Mar 2025 18:45:58 -0700

I once had a smaller card that didn't fit the slot reader jammed into the camera I didn't realize it but when I took a knife and jammed it in there and got the card unstuck I think I may have broken one of the pins in the card reader because now my camera will not read any card I can't even format the card when I put into the camera it just says the memory card cannot be used and I've tried formatting the cards in different ways and I even formatted it to one gigabyte which is supposedly the maximum size cards that the camera reads and I changed the formatting settings on the card put it into the camera and it still doesn't work what do I do

Nikon Coolpix 3200: Unable to take a picture, I can change data fields, the lens will zoom

Tue, 28 May 2024 13:06:21 -0700

I think the shutter is not releasing. If I turn "flash" on and try to take a pic; it will flash I can view all pics already on the memory card. However, the pic I just tried to take is just a blank . If I select"Sport" mode and depress the button. I can hear it try to take the five pics as it should. Again, all blanks. How can I fix it? The camera is an E3200.

This is in response to "oldturkey03's asking for clarification.

Nikon Coolpix 3200: Why does my screen go black & red light flash after I take flash photo

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 18:45:16 -0700

After I take a flash photo, my screen goes black for about 10 seconds and a red light blinks where the flash indicator is. After the 10 seconds the screen comes back and i’m able to take another photo. when I take a photo without flash the green focus light will also flash for a few seconds and I have to wait those few seconds for my photo to go away instead of being able to immediately take another photo. I read the whole manual online and didn’t see this problem in the troubleshooting. I didn’t used to have this problem when I first got the camera but stopped using it for a few months while I waited for my 2gb sim card to come in and am now having problems.

Nikon Coolpix 3200: Battery cover does not close.

Wed, 20 May 2015 09:54:05 -0700

The battery cover won't snap closed any more. After sliding it in place and closing, the lid does not catch. It springs open. The unsatisfactory remedy is to use a rubber band to keep the lid closed.

Please give me an idea on how to fix it.

Thanks, Lara

It's a Coolpix 5200.
