I have only had my camera since march (first SLR) i took it to Norfolk for the weekend to take a few bird pics.
on Saturday it started going wrong when i pressed the shutter button nothing happened The f stop had 2 dots or ERR in the panel then sometimes it would work then sometimes he didn't and lots of the pictures were black or very dark, is this a know fault with the D90

Are Nikon cameras a bit like Alfa cars great performance but unreliable?

it was a birthday present (50th) but i have registered it on-line but don't have the receipt- should i just contact Nikon, i have a Nikon scope which has always given me great performance so i was surprised when the camera went wrong after 8 weeks.

any suggestion what might be wrong?

Many Thanks

if it is the kit lens 18-105mm nikon lens then it could be a problem with that lens, my kit lens kept doing it and you had to keep giving it a move when its clicked in place then it works i took it where i got it from and got a new kit lens, not been a problem since..
 
Many Thanks il give it ago before contacting Nikon

the lens is a 150-500 Sigma, refitted the lens again plus i tried my Nikon lens and no problems at all shot off 150 shots or so.

certainly worth dropping the forum a message when you have a problem, i was all ready to send the camera back to Nikon for repair

Thanks for your help from a newbie.

No sure if that lens has an aperture ring or not, if it does, always make sure it is in the fully open position otherwise you get an ERR message also.
 
I was going to say what -RV- did. In had that problem a couple of times before I realised it was the aperture ring.
