Well I called the camera store up here and asked if they could take a look at it. They told me that they would have to send it to Nikon as there are no place around here that works on them where the waranty would be valid. Something like that. So looks like I will be without my camera for a while. I am so depressed. I will miss my camera. It has become part of me, I don't know what I will do without it. But at least it will be fixed and I can get back to playing and learning. Hope it doesn't take them too long to fix it. Thanks for all the advice. It really helped. Leigh
