REE I can't take pictures with my D80, there's an flashing rEE and a Blinking 513 within the digital display. How can I solve this problem? I'm not sure if the Memory Card holds it formatting? email: [email protected]

Set both the exposure dial and the focusmode to "M" and press the shutter button. Then turn the camera off for 10 - 15 seconds. If this doesn't solve the problem, it's an electronic or mechanical error.

I belive this isn't a fault but more to do with how you are using the camera. The r09 message is to do with the camera buffer and how many more pictures it can hold. You do have a memory card installed, right? The r09 is normally not an error, but simply an indicator of how many more pictures you can take in the current burst before the buffer fills. The number will vary according to the image quality and size settings.

your subject maybe very near that's why the auto mode prevents you from closing the shutter. R just stands for remaining images in the buffer.

If your camera got moisture inside and you turned it on before it had a chance to completely dry (usually takes several days) you may have caused a short circuit.

This may be due to the aperture ring in your lens. Try the following:

1. Turn off your camera
2. Move the aperture ring clockwise then lock
3. Turn on your camera and try again.

If this does not work, do the same thing again but turn the aperture ring counter-clockwise.

This may be due to a faulty battery. Make sure you change to a fully charged Nikon battery and retry.

Yes. But I don't think this is an error. It is only to excessive lit areas

i have a Orite Mv 3115-Real Dv Mpeg4Vga resolution 30 FPS Digital Veidio Camera. no the problem that the battery of my camera down and i sent that with my friend to bay a new for me unfortunatly he miss that on travel so i need to fins a new battery for that
i hope sir you can healp me to find one and a charger too

Do you mean the control panel on top or the big LCD on the back?

The display on top should be showing you stuff like the shutter speed and aperture as you take the picture.

The display on the back will not show you the picture while you're taking it. The D80 does not have a Live View capability.

Hello cherdh,

To disable those blinking spots, just press the up or down cursor keys at the back of the camera while in playback mode. You will get three different views. One shows the EXIF data (Image data) as an over lay on your photograph. Press the button again to go to histogram mode, with graphs. Press it again to go to a mode where some image data is on the bottom of the display with no blinkies on the image.

Those blinking black spots are called highlights in a photograph. They indicate the areas where your photograph is over-exposed, i.e. where there is too much light and the colours are washed out. It can be a good tool to get a good exposure. Keep clicking with different settings till you get an exposure without those blinking spots.

I hope this helps.
