D500 can't access SD card slot

No. That just adjusts custom settings from where a user may have set them back to where Nikon had set them.

I know of no custom setting where the user chooses to disable a card slot to a "cannot access" status. My D750 has only three options for the card slots: 1. Overflow, 2. Backup, and 3. Splitting jpegs from raw. Theres no menu option to disable a slot. So returning to the factory default settings will not "re-enable" an unaccessible slot.


A user can choose to use only one slot by leaving Slot 2 empty, but that doesnt really disable the unused slot. Its still ready to receive a card. Anywho, I suppose that you are, or were, using both slots, cuz you removed the SD card to read and copy it to your PC.

Hawgsters are such lemmings as concerns resetting to default (aka two-button reset) as some sorta miracle cure. It never occurs to them, never seen it even once, that if theres ANY suspicion at all of a user setting causing problems, then instead of resetting, a first move is to dial up a never-used virgin "U" mode. Most users never setup the "U" modes so dialing to one of those will undo plenty of user settings. Plenty but not all, yet its a benign thing to at least try that first. I have actually "repaired" a Z6II via a "U" mode.

I would greatly discount *any* advice, about anything, from any Hawgster that has ever suggested a two-button reset. Its a flashing warning sign of chronic cluelessness :-(

Yes, I can leave the secondary slot (CD slot) empty, and the camera will read photos to the primary slot (the XQD slot). However, if I put a card in the secondary slot, along with the XQD card in the primary slot, I am not able to use the camera.

D500 can't access SD card slot

Do you think it may help to try and set it back to factory default?


When I turn on the camera, on the rear monitor, CARD is flashing at the top of the screen. At the bottom I get "err" and the lock symbol (a key) is showing SD slot is locked. The card is not locked. Could I have possibly somehow locked the secondary slot where the SD card goes?

Unless you have somehow accidentally set the lock tabs on both cards, youre likely needing a repair. Before giving up, inspect the slot, blast with air, and try again. But odds are on repair. Setting both tabs would be quite a coincidence

UPDATE :-(

Just test locked the tabs on a D610. The error message specifically tells me "Memory card is locked". So your D500 would most likely also be so specific if you had locked those cards. Not great news .....

D500 can't access SD card slot
I shoot with the D500. I have as my primary slot the XQD Sony card, the secondary slot is the SD Extreme Pro32 GB card. Several days ago, I was shooting, and everything worked fine. Took cards out of camera, downloaded pictures to my computer, put the cards back in camera, and formatted the XQD card. I could not format the SD card, I was prompted that the camera could not access the card, insert another card. Today, I got a new SD Extreme Plus 64 GB card, inserted it, got same message camera could not access card. Can any D500 users shed some light on what the problem might be?

I use InPixio's Replace Sky and Remove Objects; both quite good. Haven't used it for anything else.

A Lightroom/Photoshop subscription is a bargain @ $10/mth.

I looked at the photoshop, it was 22.00/month. Can one just get lightroom? Is that enough to process raw photos?

I had it last year. I liked the program but they add charges without your knowledge and it never costs what it says it does. When you buy it and give them your information, they tell you certain things won't work unless you buy so & so to go with it, then they try to insist on you buying even more. What was supposed to be on sale for $39 wound up as $200.


Wow, thanks for the information.

Looking at Inpixio
I am looking for a decent photo editing program. Does anyone have any thoughts on Inpixio, like ease of use, powerful enough to do moderate photo editing roles, cost, etc. I appreciate any input, thank you.

I now have a Nikon Z50 camera. When I download photos (using a card reader) to my computer there is always a red circle with an X in the circle with the folder (bottom left area) where photos are found. When I process photos in photoshop and save them, each photo has that same red circle with an X in it. Can someone enlighten me as to why this occurs and what I can do about it? Thank you for your help.

Using filters
I hope this question has not been asked before, I hate facing the wrath of those people with photographic minds that remember every post ever made on UHH, but here goes. I like using a lens hood on my lenses. When using a CP filter, it is rather difficult, if not impossible to adjust that filter without taking off the lens hood, adjusting the filter, then replacing the filter. Is there a better way of doing it without taking off that hood? I realize I am not the brightest bulb on the tree, so please spare the ink in trying to prove to me how stupid I am, thanks in advance!

Stumbled across file size question.

How many times do we have to explain the single most important aspect of a pixel-based digital image is the pixel resolution?

How many times do we have to explain the file size in bytes (MB - megabytes) has nothing to do with the print / display sizes of a pixel-based digital image?

How many times?

Your attachment is 7379x5021 pixels wide & tall - this is the 'pixel resolution'. Yep, it will fill your screen. The fact you can attach and store the file to an UHH post tells you next to nothing, other than the file size is at (or less) than roughly 20MB. A quick detach and we see the filesize, on disk, 1.53MB.

What we can't see is all these immense file sizes you're quoting. Given you're referencing email attachments, we're left thinking your quoted PS observation are erroneous, as they're unrealistic. You should double-check and reconsider these PS observations.

The likely issue is that PS is 'reading' the hard-coded nonsensical 300 dpi value embedded into the JPEG. How many times? How many times do we have to say: there are no dots in a pixel based image? None.

Come on Man, not everyone has a photographic memory like you must have. Not everyone has the intellect and super ability to research and find information like you must possess. No need to put us less fortunates down. If questions like this bother you, just don't answer them. You don't need to show your super intelligence by putting others down. Just saying!
