New Nikon D90 goes into ERR after several shots. only correction is to remove the battery and replace then it resets. I have sandisk extreme III 4 gb memory so speed is not the issue. any thoughts on this?
thanks for the help. the camera was only 20 days old so I returned it for another D90. So far no issues. The camera package included a DX VR lense so with a new setup i hope to have better success.
thanks again.Gryfox,

This is an indication that the camera is not "talking" to the lens correctly. When you press the shutter button, the camera tries to focus, set light levels, and then shoot the picture. If it can't focus or set F-stop and shutter speed, then it can't shoot the picture and gives you the error indication. SO
1. You need to make sure the lens is an automatic lens capable of working with the D90.
2. You can take the lens off and back onto the camera a few times in case its a dirty contact issue or just didn't seat correctly.
3. Set the D90 to manual and make sure you move the AF selector on the front to M. Then you would manually adjust all the settings. That should take the auto-coupling out of the picture (pun intended)
4. If it still shows error when in total manual mode, there may be something wrong in the camera itself. Before giving up, do a total system reset on the D90 (I assume you have the manual).
I've also got a D90- nice camera. I only get the err message when the lens is not seated correctly or the f-stop ring is not set to the max. If you check the settings and assembly correctly and they seem OK, then the contacts may be dirty or faulty. If the indicator is blinking pre-shutter release, that may indicate the same issues. If you have another lense to try, that may be a good indicator of bad contacts or issues in the lense.
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:
Remove all accessories from the camera.
Install a freshly charged battery into the camera.
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. Click here for repair information.
Take your manual reset a little further...remove the card and battery...press all the buttons...leave the camera alone for at least 20 minutes...insert the card and then the battery...turn it on. See if that works.
No, it is not a malfunction, and it is perfectly normal. It is just a heads-up-display of how many pictures you have left. THere might be a way to turn it off, so consult the user manual, or go to this link. http://www.nikonusa.com/pdf/manuals/noprint/D300_en_noprint.pdf
Observe the connector inside camera, using a flashlight. If there is a bent pin take the camera to service immediately. Don't turn it on any more as we did in one similar case - creating a short circuit that damaged the camera electronics and voided the warranty.
If no visible problems, remove battery and leave it out overnight.
