Thanks for your response. I'll just cover it with a little foam for the moment.
Yes, it works if I use a toothpick to selectOh noes! Does it still work in its present state? It most probably would be cheaper to find a replacement camera than a part/getting it repaired/trying to find a replacement back.
I've seen that happen to a few of the F/N series cameras, which is why I lock mine in the center spot position and leave it alone.

I just checked and it seem that button is unique to the N80/F80. I also discovered another advantage of the N55...no electronics in the back to break; the N55 does not have this button on the back.
Yes, it works if I use a toothpick to select, but I don't mess with it anymore.

The "ignore user" feature is your friend. I find it very calming.Congrats, you've been qualified for the "Freak of the week", with good reasons,
Dood, I love the 35 f2 D! I've attached samples earlier in this thread w the N80 - the ones with the seagulls. (page 8)
Mine unfortunately suffers from the common oily/sticky aperture issue, but I will get it fixed this week.
Now I know where the Sirius Glass comes into play. I always thought that it related to lenses. Silly meEnjoy! While you wait for the isopropyl alcohol to dry, imbibe a glass of dry white wine or a gin martini.

Just dropped off the lens at Dean's Camera Repair in Torrance today.
I just accidentally bought a third black N80.
$17, boxed, including a Cosina/Vivitar 28-80 AF lens. For the price of one roll of Kodak Color Plus, you can have this amazing getup!
Ok, the whole reason I bought it is because I am now convinced that the ballyhooed (and rightly so) Nikon 28-80G is actually this Cosina lens. Except the Cosina version gets a metal lens mount! I spent the $17 in the interest of science to compare.
The Cosina/Vivitar lens it comes with:
We expect a full written report by tomorrow.
those pics are from the ebay ad. camera showing up next week sometime.
N80’s seem to be commanding higher prices these: days. I bought one for $21 a couple weeks ago and just bought a backup body for $24 a few minutes ago. No broken latches on either.
I still like my N75’s, but I’m prouder of my N80’s if that makes sense.
Get three or four more, then you could wander around like a 90's version of Dennis Hopper in "Apocalypse Now"!
This $17 with lens one is fully working, non sticky, even comes with batteries! The batteries may be 50% of the value!
Some people complain about ebay, saying no deals etc. I find it awesome, always get killer deals.
I get feeling prouder of the N80, having had an N75. It's because w the N75 you can see and feel what is missing - due to cost. But the N80? Everything is there and it feels great in hand!
