use center fous mode dont keep multi focusing mode

Hi Given its age - almost 10 years now, while you don't want drama you can expect them. I had same probs with a Sony - green and yellow lines - then later on a horizontal split in the pics - with the bottom out of alignment with the top. Nikon should be able to quote for a repair - its a quality, full frame camera worth a proper repair. Despite its now small size 12 meg sensor it will still beat a lot of today's cameras in the hands of a good photographer. Cheers Mike

Don't attempt to repair your camera if you are not trained.

Probably a loose hotshoe. This is a common problem with the D700 hotshoe and SB900 combo. The weight of the SB900 eventually loosens the hotshoe, meaning the internal screws holding the hotshoe in place loosens.

Turn the aperture ring to its smallest setting (largest f/number). You control the aperture from the camera body, the same was as on a lens without an aperture ring.

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Nikon Transfer and Picasa.

Check the focus selector lock, located just below the multiselector (the cursor pad with the arrows). Make sure it's not in the "L" position, which locks the focus area.
