The only thing you can do is send it to Nikon for repair.

Sometimes lens mount to camera can get loose but mostly lens has a electrical connection problem that you would be better off just replacing lens with a good used one from eBay.

Take your 200 to service.

If camera shows no sign of abuse, play st-pid and take it back to where you bought it and tell them unit is defective and you want to exchange it for a working model.

To solve this all you need to do is turn the lens' aperture ring (the one nearest the camera body) to the smallest number (probably 22 or 32).

Needs a service

Your flash head pivot has come unclipped and has slid back into its hole too far. The problem can be repaired by using an L-shaped paperclip to pull the flash pivot back out to its proper position. First, remove the battery from the camera and bend a 1/8" section of the paperclip to make an L on the end and gently insert it into the hole and pull outward while moving the flash head up and down. It should pop back out and the pin will then be long enough to make the flash switch work. Be very careful you do not push the paperclip too far inside the camera so you don't damage anything inside the top.

If you do not feel comfortable doing this, we can do this repair for $68.50. We do quite a few D series Nikons with this same problem.

If the cable is working fine then check the port on both camera and PC. on the camera maybe there's some dirt or lint stuck on the port try to clean it. On the PC might wanna try other ports usually the one at the back is recommended.

Try cleaning the contacts on the lens and camera with a lint-free cloth and IPA

The card is corrupted - just replace it

There is a tiny slider switch on the memory card, move it to the unlock position.

If a pin got damaged, then a trip back to a Nikon repair center is the only way to properly repair it. It may be still under warranty if it's less than 3 years old.

Easter was a fortnight ago - you've broken it twice since then ? Maybe you should try a different hobby

The D90 won't deface your photos by scrawling a string of numbers across them. However, the date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every image in what's called the EXIF data. Just about any photo printing program will allow you to include some of this data when printing the photo. Depending on the program and printer, you can print this data on the picture, in the margins, or on the back.

Please shoot in P mode. In P mode it will use the flash if you pop it up and not use it if it is down. The flash uses LOTS of battery power. If you battery is weak the flash may take a long time to recycle (charge). The Flash must be popped up and READY before you can use it. The flash is charged or READY when the RED light is on. I hope this helps.

Check your ISO, your white balance, and whether you have set exposure compensation by mistake.

Format the SD cards with the camera. You might have to do a software upgrade on the camera since the Kodak card files are different than Nikons.

You should be able to download the latest firmware from the Nikon site. Their support pages may also offer advice.

Return under warranty

is it just in A mode?
