Tue, 30 Apr 2019 19:17:19 -0700

I am not able to change out lenses. The Nikon lens that is currently on the camera will not release. Or the camera will not release the lens. I'm not sure if it's the lens or the camera that is the problem.

Can anyone give me some advice!

Thank you

Sun, 08 Jan 2017 12:47:30 -0700

Hi,

I recently had a little mishap with my camera and managed to stumble on the HDMI cable while it was plugged into the camera. The cable was jerked out of the socket sideways damaging the pins inside the socket. Is there a way to replace the HDMI port on this camera?

Nikon D800: The viewfinder goes black

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 17:34:09 -0700

I tried the S setting but nothing is shown in the viewfinder except a few red lines and numbers. I switched to Live view and can take photos using the display on the back. There seems to be something loose when it is shaken slightly. It is almost as though something has become unplugged under the flash.

It show the red numbers at the bottom and a red sectional graph and the red focus point but no image.
