"Err" appear in the viewfinder and LCD display

Check the batteries

Is there anything else than the ERR? Hold on I will have to look it up, just a moment.

Your camera requires service, this problem will only get worse.

"ERR" doesn't indicate any specific error, but usually tends to be something only a technician can fix. Sometimes, you can make it go away by fully pressing the shutter release, but chances are that it will reappear at some point. Take it to a reputable camera shop, or send it to Nikon if you're still under warranty.

(The "r09" message is not an error, but an indicator of how many images you can take-nine in this case-before the camera has to pause for processing. This usually applies to burst-mode photography, and varies depending on how fast your CF card can transfer images.)

Shutter motor is jammed and needs to be replaced.

Hello,
I got this info from Nikon for D70...
When you see Err on the control panel, LCD monitor or viewfinder of your digital camera it refers to a camera malfunction. Try the following:

1. Remove all accessories from the camera.
2. Install a freshly charged battery into the camera.
3. If your Nikon camera offers resets such as the two-button reset or a hardware reset please follow those instructions provided in the product manual.

If these steps do not resolve the Err message we recommend having a Nikon Authorized Repair Technician evaluate the Nikon camera.
Hope this be useful for you to resolve problem.

Auto Mode In this mode, all you have to do is press the shutter button and let the camera do everything else. 1. Turn the camera on.
2. Turn the shooting mode dial to .
3. Aim the camera at the subject.
4. Use the zoom lever to achieve the desired composition (relative subject size in the viewfinder).

• The angle of view can be adjusted within the 45 to 100 mm range, in 35mm film equivalent.
• When the LCD monitor is on, the combined use of the digital zoom and optical zoom enables magnified shooting up to approx. 7x.

5. Press the shutter button halfway.

• Two beeps will sound when the camera has finished metering, and the indicator will light green or orange. If the LCD monitor is on, the AF frame will appear green.
• The yellow indicator will blink and the beep will sound one time if the subject is difficult to focus on.

6. Press the shutter button all the way.

• You will hear the sound of the shutter when the shutter activates.
• The picture appears for two seconds on the LCD monitor, if it is on.
• The indicator next to the viewfinder blinks green while data is recorded onto the SD card.

Some digital SLR camera have a mirror lock and others have a viewfinder shutter In each case this will be a knob in the region of the viewfinder that turns. Check that this model has it and it has not be inadvertently turned. Then come back
