have not seen it on my d300,( a fantastic camera by the way.) usualy Nikon error codes start with err. In your manual there is a list of error codes. I would also email customer support at nikonusa.com They have always been quick and helpful. You could also pm MT shooter. He is the wizard of Nikonian lore. Obviously there is something wrong with the computer that records meta data to the memory card

may explain why we are having difficulty understanding the OP's post. We are not getting the real story.

Another site:
http://fotoforensics.com/tutorial-meta.php
makes an interesting and disturbing comment on viewers:

"Preview Inspector. The default Apple Mac OS X picture viewer is called Preview. Preview contains an 'Inspector' to view metadata. This tool displays a small fraction of the available metadata and can provide misleading analysis results. Do not use Preview Inspector for any official work."
"Microsoft Windows Photo Viewer. The default photo viewer under Windows 7 and Windows 8 contains a 'properties' option that lists metadata. However, this tool displays fictional metadata fields that do not exist in the file, omits most fields that do exist, rewrites some metadata values, and renames some of the fields that it displays. Do not use Windows Photo Viewer for any metadata analysis."

Who has had the f95 come up on the photo information on a nikon d300 camera? What did you do about it?

It might be a typo, like 9.5 instead of 95

Just trying to be helpful here... The help the OP we're going to need much more information as even the camera model is incorrectly displayed. Please provide as much data about the camera and the settings that you are able along with the software from which you made the "snapshot" of the screen from. I did, at one time, own a D300 and found it to be a very good camera. During my several year association with it, I never experienced anything like the op is showing here. Then again, I only looked at the metadata from a very small percentage of my shots. Hope this helps.

Ignore the fake exif data sheet from july 4th 2009.
If the OP is getting an err 95 on his display screen for all of his lenses then its probably just lens related communications error.or exif encode error ocuring in the D3oo.
If cleaning contacts doesn't repair it then send the body in for repair.

The only mystery here is why was the OP faking it?

I don't see what you see. How is he faking it? He probably just doesn't know enough of what he's seeing to describe his problem. I'd be inclined to think he's using an EXIF viewer that isn't accurate.

I think he should upload an image and check the (store original) and be sure not to strip out the EXIF when saving the image so we can have a look see.

check the data and file name in the exif data he provided, compare it to the exif image i posted.
His is an obvious copy with the f stop entry changed.
That exif data did not come from his camera.

If the OP were to provide a current image and download, it would help to clear up whats really going on.

Unlike the D800 and other Nikons, the D700 has an aperture setting for 9.5. I am quite certain the the 95 aperture in question is simply a typo in the data.

it would tickle me if the whole post is a fake made with the intention of teaching us newbies about the DSLR error 95 and what it indicates.

I want to thank everyone for your comments. I took my camera to a camera shop and found out that when I did the update that only the a part updated. Part b did not update. Part b was updated and the problem went away. This was not a prank to trick newbies. I would not do that. I am not like some people that put there 2 cents in just to be heard. If someone has a question why don't you help if you can or keep your mouth shut if you can't.

Obvious from the answers is that a) we don't know, b) even if we might know, there wasn't enough information and c) there are a lot of both snipers and comedians aboard.

Call Nikon. Or talk to Rick Riggens. (Send him a direct email here on the Hog)

Here it is in a nut shell. When you update the Firmware on the D300 there two parts. Part A & Part B. When I updated my D300 only Part A updated. When I took my D300 to the camera shop they updated Part B. This fixed the problem I was having. The is my last reply. If this does not answer the question keep talking. I am done.
