D750 "ERR"
Nov 20, 2021 09:11:31 #
I'm not looking for a solution or sympathy - not yet, anyway. I was taking a few indoor shots yesterday using the pop-up flash. It didn't always flash, but there was no pattern to the non-flashing. Then I noticed "ERR" in the top LCD. I replaced the battery a couple of time, but there is still ERR in the LCD. The pictures - with and without the flash - turned out fine. I might find time later to check it out, and I'll let you know what I find.
This is a good example of why having just one camera is like having none at all - just like backups. "One is none; two is one."

By the book: ERR - Listed as Camera malfunction. Release shutter (several times?) if it continues, return to Nikon Service.

Try re-seating the lens and cleaning the contacts on the lens and camera body.

AF -D (or AF) lens must set to minimum aperture and lock when mount to D750 and others with body af motor. I guess that was the problem 'ERR'

Yes, make sure that if you're using a screw drive lens that the aperture control on the lens is set to the minimum aperture. There is going to be a way to lock it at that. If you're using an AF-S lens, then make sure that your shutter speed is below the maximum allowed for flash synch, probably 1/250. I'm not sure on that, since I don't own that particular camera.

I am surprised with the ERR message you were able to take a photo and it came out okay. Did I understand your post correctly? When I have had the ERR message, my camera was unable to take a photo. Is it possible the ERR message appears after you take the shot? It is my understanding that many things can cause this, including as mentioned poor contact with the lens, etc. One time it was due to a problem with my shutter. Good luck figuring it out.

Jerry said “I'm not looking for a solution or sympathy - not yet, anyway”. The point was about why a backup camera is a good thing to have.
Yet the posts above, all offered solutions.
I have a question for Jerry, what camera will you use for backup?

Rather than pay Nikon several hundred dollars, I'd probably start using the little Sony and Fuji - or buy a large mirrorless.
I'll use it a lot today and see what happens. I did the lens thing and swapped batteries, but I don't think that mattered. In a separate post, I mentioned that my printer wouldn't work yesterday, but it works today.

Thanks. Been there, done that.

I've had this problem several time at the start of a paid shoot. The advice above is good. The combination of turning it off; removing and reinstalling the battery; turning it back on; and removing and reinstalling the lens has always worked for me. Good Luck!

Don't laugh. I recently came across my wife's old Kodak One digital camera. It's a surprisingly nice camera, and it still works, from about 2008. I don't think it shoot raw, though.

Pixie dust. Sprinkle pixie dust on it. That always works. (But it has to be real pixie dust).
