VR problem

Hi, the focus indicator LED lights, and some part of the scene is in focus, but not the object of your photo (af afs central area).
This is perhaps a back focus problem and needs service from Nikon to make the correction.

When you set the exposure mode to Manual, you then have to set the shutter speed and aperture yourself. That's the whole point of the manual setting: the camera does none of the work for you.

By not clear do you mean out of focus or streaked due to movement? Try using a higher ISO setting in order to allow for a faster shutter speed and/or use a tripod.

switch button got damage due to hard press so you need to replace it

Have you tried to see if you camera is running the latest firmware? If its not update it.

You could probably use either a 1.4 x or a 2 x, depending on how much you wanted to increase the focal length of your lens. A 1.4 x would give you a range of 98-420, a 2 x would give you a range of 140-600. Having said that, teleconverters are not usually recommended for use with zoom lenses, and you would lose one stop with the 1.4 x, two stops with the 2 x, thus necessitating longer exposures. Also, with the increase in focal length comes an increased probability of camera shake being more apparent, due to the increased magnification. In your position, I would attempt to get closer to the subject, using a teleconverter as a last resort if this is not possible.

Format the SD card first.
