Why is the shutter release disabled on my Nikon D50?
The shutter release on your Nikon Digital Camera might be disabled due to several reasons: insufficient memory, low battery, or incorrect mode settings. Try deleting files or folders, charging the battery, selecting a longer monitor off or meter off delay, selecting 'Detailed' for CSM/Setup Menu, choosing another mode, or inserting a memory card. Also, ensure the aperture is locked at the highest f/-number, the memory card is not locked, the memory card is not full, and the flash is not charging.
What to do if randomly-spaced bright pixels appear in photos taken with my Nikon Digital Camera?
If you notice randomly-spaced bright pixels (noise) in your photos, try these solutions: turn noise reduction off. If the shutter speed is slower than 1?, use noise reduction or choose a lower sensitivity.
Why is no photo taken when I press the remote control shutter release on my Nikon D50?
If your Nikon Digital Camera isn't taking a photo when you press the remote control shutter release, it might be due to bright light interfering with the remote. Try replacing the battery in the remote control, choosing the correct remote control mode, or reselecting the remote control mode if the set time has passed.
Why are "tall" (portrait-orientation) photos displayed in "wide" (landscape) orientation on my Nikon D50 Digital Camera?
If portrait-orientation photos are displayed in landscape orientation on your Nikon Digital Camera, it might be because the photo was taken with 'Off' selected for Image Rotation. Select 'Yes' for Rotate Tall to correct this.
What to do if blotches appear on photos taken with my Nikon Digital Camera?
If blotches appear on your photos, clean the lens and the low-pass filter of your Nikon Digital Camera.
Why can't I delete a photo on my Nikon D50 Digital Camera?
If you can't delete a photo on your Nikon Digital Camera, it might be protected; remove the protection. Another reason might be that the memory card is locked.
Why can't I use exposure compensation on my Nikon Digital Camera?
Exposure compensation cannot be used if autoexposure lock is in effect on your Nikon Digital Camera.
Why can't I select an image as a source for preset white balance on my Nikon D50 Digital Camera?
