Nikon D50 Camera problem?

Wednesday Jan 12, 2011

My Nikon D50 doesn’t work in auto-mode ,i mean when i press to make a picture in auto mode the Lensis making a few moves and takes a very bblurrypicture ,it doesn’t focus , what could be the problem,lLens,camera or something in settings? :(
its an AF-S NIKKOR 18-55 mm
and if the problem is in the Camera motor,how much it will cost to repair it? :(

A problem in the camera motor would mean an economical writeoff. Since you’re using an AF-S lens that will not be it. See if you can get a sharp picture if you switch lens and body to manual focus.

I strongly suspect the lens suffered physical damage (dropping or hitting it can do that) and that with a new lens it will be fine. A gently used 18-55 can be had for $75 easily


Used Digital SLR for Teen Beginner?

Wednesday Jan 12, 2011

I want to get a used (read inexpensive) DSLR for my 14 year old girl. She has shown aptitude and responsibility with a borrowed camera. It would be nice to get into a product line that lends to upgrading – accumulate a few lenses and other accessories and eventually step-up to a more sophisticated body. But that’s not required. It would be equally desirable to just get a lens and body that are easy to resell once the commitment to photography has evolved, and then move into whatever makes sense at the time. A quick-take has led me to the Canon 20D. A newer camera, the Olympus E-520 came on my radar today as I perused used cameras at stores in downtown Osaka. With the weak US $, both the 20D and E-520 seem to be in the mid-to-upper $200 range before tax. Maybe a bit less a Nikon D50. Although I love the selection in Japan, I think I can do as well back in the U.S., and I’m leaving today. Plus I’m not informed well enough to make a purchase yet. All three of these bodies are available on eBay for less than $300 right now. So with that price range in mind, would you care to weigh-in on which would be the best choice for my situation. Other cameras? Thanks!

I have the 20D, and I love it. It is a great camera. The body is mostly magnesiusm, so it is stupid durable. The low light performance isn’t something to rave about, but that is understandable for a 7 year old camera. It takes both EF and EF-S lenses, so you can find a rather large selection of those on website like ebay and B&H.

Oh on a side note about the 20D, when you get it, if the shutter makes a really loud noise, don’t worry. The 20D has a rather loud, distinctive mirror slapping noise. Not sure why. The 10D and the 30D are relatively quiet, but the 20D sounds like a full on slap.
