douglas_burrell1 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 <p>Follow-up to a previous question regarding D100 and menu/replay showing a blank screen. After fidling a lot, the menu or replay will display and then begin to fade to blank. I am able to change settings in the menu if I act quickly before the image fades. Still trying to figure what may be the cause. It now appears to me to be a switch or function that is failing.<br> Anyone else experiencing this proble ? Love the 100 for casual and comfort handling and hate to let it go or purchase another on e-bay. Any suggestions?</p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliot1 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 <p>As you seem to be quiet attached to that camera, why don't you send it to Nikon for a free estimate. It will only cost you a few dollars to ship it to them and they will ship it back to you at no cost if you decide not to repair it. And maybe you will get lucky and the repair won't be unreasonable. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kum03 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 <p>D100 is my first love as well, mine had contact problem with shooting mode but not the display. It might cost more than the camera is worth even if they still have the part. Have you consider a D200? the last CCD from nikon, they are quite cheap and much more improved features.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernie moore Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I have a D100 and a D200, and admit the superiority of the 200, but when I wander in a shooting mode I have the D100 in hand. Don't have a clue why, I just do it. In answer to your question, there has to be D100s for sale on the auction site for a lot less than a repair bill and 2 way shipping.

martynas_photo Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 If the problem is with the rear screen, a new oem replacement costs 27$ on the big auction site. I also have the official d100 service manual in pdf, should you decide to replace it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
