my Nikon D50 suddenly went from great pictures to all white pics: TTL images look fine. All functions seem to work fine. The piks though come out all white with a dark streak on one...

TTL images look fine. All functions seem to work fine. The piks though come out all white with a dark streak on one side (left side).
This happened suddenly without any warning.
Any ideas what it could be? I have tried different lens that works great on the 7100.

D500? maybe you pushed the exposure +- button and are way over exposing. It is easy to do if you are adjusting the ISO. you can get + 5

Post some photos with the ability to download, and we can look at the EXIF and see if anything is wrong there.

Your camera is an antique (for those that do not know what a D50 is), sounds like a total failure of either the sensor or the PCB. I am afraid its terminal as repairs would cost FAR more than the cameras replacement value.

when things happen, I usually go to the Menu and reset the camera; that could work for you

I would suspect shutter failure. They do wear out.

Your shutter is not closing.

I had two D50's long ago that suffered both Sensor and Shutter failures. Neither was worth fixing. Time for an upgrade - there are some very good deals on 3000, 5000, and 7000 series DX format bodies.

A D50? What I want to know is how have you avoided a GAS attack this long? Please share your secret!

Everything becomes clear when you see you need a new camera.

I am so sorry for your loss. The D50 was my first digital camera. It was a great camera and I still use and enjoy mine but not used as often as my newer ones. Not worth fixing but you can replace it with another one real cheap or for a little more you can get a much newer used DSLR. And the new ones are really a great value right now. Good luck and have fun shopping!!

Clear is that you need a new camera, time for the D50 to rest.
