The screen stays on so that you can monitor the activity taking place.

BTW, it is not advisable to use battery power when transferring images to the computer, since if the camera runs out of power partway through, all images on the card may be corrupted. Use the mains lead - it is what it is for. Alternatively, transfer the images by using a USB card reader, and placing the memory card in that.

SOURCE: Connecting the camera via USB hub.

Use of a USB hub for connection does not guarantee normal operation. Try attaching the USB cable directly from the D-snap SD Camera to one of the built-in USB ports on the PC.

Guest is right. Clean the contacts, bend the contacts with a small flat head screw driver upwards "GENTLY". This should work. Might have to repeat every couple of months. Forget regular batteries. Use the rechargeable ones. MUST be fully recharged.

SOURCE: my mp3 doesnt connect into my usb it just disconnects and starts to charge can you help me

I assume from your description that either you are running a version of Windows older than XP/2000 or you need a special driver. Here is a link for the driver(s) you will need. Just enter your model number and select your version of Windows. Download and run the file and you should be up and running shortly.

Same problem as described above. Fresh batteries, turn it on, see the Kodak screen for a second, then it just turns off. I found that if you swith it to the favorites icon (the only one below the Off position) it stays on and I can review photos. But no taking new photos! Help!!!

What is the best lens for a Nikon D3300?

Question edited for clarity. It is a *lens, not 'lense'. The model is a D3300.

When you look at something with your eyes, the field of view is around 35mm, so a lens that covers that is useful. Then at the higher end a 85mm to 210mm zoom cover the higher end. You already have and extreme telephoto. eBay or Kijiji.

How do I instal on a Nikon d3300 an opteka 500 mm lens with a opteka 2x multiplier? Could you help please?

Mount the multiplier onto the camera and then mount the lens onto the multipler. This assumes that by multiplier you really are referring to a tele-extender.

Re the D3300, battery is full, screen comes on, but goes off after 5 seconds, Why?

That's probably because nothing is wrong. If you want a longer screen time-out, you can set it in the menus.

The camera is designed to be primarily used by viewing though the optical viewfinder. Not only will this generally give you a better look, the camera is more stable when pressed against your cheek than it is held out at arm's length.

I have a Nikon d3300 that turns off automatically after i take a photo - can you assist

If the screen display is shutting off, that's a normal function. If the camera is entirely shutting off it might be a bad battery or a very weak battery.

My nikon coolpix s9100 seems to be blocked. the play/preview button will work to turn on the camera but not to actual preview anything. the buttons are working crazy

When your camera acts crazy, remove the battery , and after a few moments reinsert it. If the problem returns, there could be a more serious problem, that I can't solve, unless you have more information, about whet the camera does. Like giving a message on the screen, or some beeps, anything.

I have Nokon D300 camera and trying to connect through woreless. i checked that conectivity is establish through ping command and not dected camera control pro2 in windows7.please tell me how to reolve...

So you have a Nikon D300 with Nikon Camera Control 2 running on Window 7.
Do this first:1. Remove Nikon WT-4A from camera.2. Make sure to set menu to PTP.3. Hook USB cable from camera to computer (tethered).4. Turn on D3005. Something will display on lower right screen ei found Nikon D300.6. Click on Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 (what version do you have)?7. Wait about 2 to 3 minutes for Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 to come on.8. Adjust modes & settings from pc and fire from pc, not from camera.9. One or two of your cells is defective or weak. Battery goods for up to 3 years. You can check with DVM.10. Many are having problems using & setting up Nikon WT as well as Canon WFT.
All are now selling them and using my ATG AK1 Un-Tethered Systems.
