Hi Thank you (both for your comments) I sold the camera (cross country) to a young fellow. when he asked for advise I told him (see above comments that you did) - RE: Card. He had a very old card and he is buying a new one from Amazon.

What I was wondering: 'are there any setting on the the back (buttons) or set up menu --- that would disable viewing pics on the screen.

p.s. I shot with it the day I shipped it - all ok

Hi Folks

I recently sold my P7100 to a fellow and he says: 'when I take the picture (and hit the > button) it says 'no image')

It sounds like a set problem

And suggestions on a fix?

False alarm: problem solved...upon close inspection of the SD card bay (using my iPhone as a microscope) found a small chip of plastic (from a prior card) interfering with the spring loaded keeper --- deftly remove by my wife with a pair of surgical tweezers...

Hi,

I just bought a P7100 on eBay - described as a 9+ condition.

But it has one odd 'behavior' When trying to insert the memory card into its slot, it does not seat or 'snap in to place' --- just pops back up. I closed the battery door and 'it seems to push it down into place'

Never had this happen: is this typical of P7100? Or, should it snap in to place like a typical camera?

Comments, suggestions (tried 2 other cards from mu other Nikon and neither snap into place)?

Dave

Thanks I did look at the P7700 specs mainly the sensor (CCD > CMOS) --- to capture video.

In my experience for shooting stills CCD are better (from my NASA friend - space camera expert), I hardly ever shoot video

Thank you for the tips - do you have any experience with the P7700?

Hi,

Thanks for the welcome - I appreciate it.

I know a number of people in town who are birders - a great pastime!

The last time I was out birding was in 2009 in the Sierras with my friend Ken Briggs - he had an arsenal of Canon lenses (was shooting 5d Mk2) and a true cannon of a lens: a Canon EF 400 --- pretty amazing. GHe got some great shots of eagles.

I was along with my Fuji GSW 690 and shooting Velvia landscapes, what a contrast between cameras.

Hope we can connect sometime - I am out and about on my bicycle 4-6 times a week..

Regards,

Dave
