[QUOTE="pforsell, post: 615680, member: 7240"] The ERR is the most serious of the Nikon error messages. Often it means a failing or failed shutter. The shutter mechanism has a self monitoring mechanism and if it finds the shutter timings are wrong, it halts the camera and starts flashing the ERR message. Overexposed pictures could be a telltale of this. Dirty contacts can cause it too, but you have eliminated this. How about battery contacts? Is the battery ok? I sometimes see the message when shooting fast bursts with an old/depleted battery. The low voltage from the battery is unable to re-arm the shutter, the camera senses malfunction, and halts with blinking ERR. A fresh battery fixes this. Also a damaged AI-feeler tab on the lens mount could be the culprit. Too many possibilities to be honest, and some of them expensive. Can you get a free estimate from repair center? [/QUOTE]
