Thanks a bunch for the feedback. The toast was pretty funny. This piece of toast only had 3200 clicks when it decided to retire.
I bought a D7100 with only 2k clicks. I sure hope it will take more pics then 3.26k. It is going to be quite a learning curve for me. I started with. Ziess 35mm so no youngster here. Thanks again.

How much you want for your D50?
2 good batteries and charger plus body and shipping. I think priority shipping will be almost 17 bucks. Oh and the original manual that came with it. Make me an offer I can't refuse. 😎

A D50? What I want to know is how have you avoided a GAS attack this long? Please share your secret!
Let me just make two points in the D50's favor:
1) It has a flash sync speed of 1/500 sec, and
2) It is the smallest, lightest, least expensive DSLR that Nikon ever made which includes a focusing motor in the body so it can autofocus with AF- and AF-D Nikkors.

You can currently buy two used working ones from KEH for $49 for one and $65 for the other. For one like yours, which is not working, I would think the value would be minimal even to someone who needed it for spare parts. It is an unusable and ancient 6 mp camera, after all.

The comments about the unique feature of the D50 make these rather modest $50 used prices interesting. If you're interested in staying 'old', you might jump a few models to the D90, another well regarded model (12MP) before the DSLR industry started the mega-pixel wars moving onto the standard 24MP of today. And of course, there's always the idea of getting something new and hoping for another 14-years of use.
