Camera doesn't support 64gb, try 32gb or lesser
SOURCE: Hi. Will a Vivitar 550FD flash unit work properly
The 550 FD came out before digitals. It is fully dedicated(FD) to a type of film camera. Usually this is noted on the back of the flash. CA or C for Canon, MI or MX for Minolta, Ne or NI for Nikon. If its the Nikon dedicated unit, it should not harm your camera, and will most likely work...as a manual flash. You will lose all the neat flash stuff that the D5000 can do.
I suggest you watch Ebay for a Sunpak PZ-30, PZ-40, or a Sigma 430 or 500. The Sigma EF 500 Super will do pretty much everything the top of the line Nikon Flash does, but you can buy it new for half the price of the Nikon unit. All flashes today are dedicated to a certain group of cameras by a certain manufacturer. For example: Canon EOS film cameras or Minolta manual focus cameras.
I suggest you get rid of the 550FD as it is designed for the pre-Autofocus cameras.
Avoid the Sunpak Auto 30DX, the 333, 383, 433, 444 and the PZ 4000/5000 as well as the MZ flashes. These were not designed for your new digital.
Metz also makes some very nice flashes, but they're kinda pricey.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the great info. You know what you're talking about. "
SOURCE: How do I adjust the aperture on the Nikon D5000
It depends on the exposure mode.
In Program mode (P), turn the command dial and the camera will shift the exposure by changing both the aperture and the shutter speed.
In Aperture-priority mode (A), turn the command dial and the camera will adjust the shutter speed to suit.
In Manual mode (M), hold the aperture button and turn the command dial.
If you're using a lens with an aperture ring, turn it to its smallest aperture (largest f/number) and lock it.

No. First the Canon 199 was designed for the Canon camera, and the electronics are very different in the Nikon. Two the 199 was designed for film and the digital metering is completely differnt for digital. Buy a Nikon flash.
SOURCE: Nikon coolpix 2100- out of memory- After installing 4gb CF card
4GB requires FAT32. Camera firmware only supports FAT16. 4GB won't work because FAT16 has a 2GB maximum size limitation. 1GB CF card is Nikon's "approved" maximum for this camera.
Catch: 22 1GB -and lesser capacity- CF cards are no longer manufacturered or generally available in 2010. When the current CF card dies, the still working camera also becomes throwaway unless you can source a CF card 1GB or under. 2GB may work, but with 'issues' per caution below.
CAUTION: Anecdotal evidence suggests the final release -& current- firmware for cameras of this generation is also encumbered by with a maximum picture number limitation of 999, realistic at the time of original manufacture when 256MB was a the largest capacity CF card but completely nonsensical now.
Summary: This is my first NIkon Digital camera and also my last.
Apart from the noteriety of the ubiquitous broken Nikon plastic battery latch, a major design flaw Nikon refuse to acknowledge or accept liability to rectify -since self-repaired better than OEM, Nikon policy on firmware support is complete abandonment of product within an unacceptably short service window. ie: a deliberate poilicy of enforced obsolescence.
Suggested Problem Remedy: Do buy a new camera supporting SD Cards of current capacities. Don't buy anything branded Nikon.

If you are following the instructions as outlined in the manual and it still doesn't autofocus, take it back.
