Need help with D90 - calling all Nikon owners!
Hey guys, just bought a new D90 and played with it the moment I got home, make sure it all works and stuff. Looks good. The battery came half full so I charged it overnight.
Fast forward to this morning, I put the freshly charged battery into the camera, played with it some more, took a few pictures, and noticed that all my pictures are underexposed. Everything I take that is faster than 1/100s shutter speed gives me a black screen on my 18-105mm Nikkor AF-S. Using flash helps, but it limits my shutter speed to 1/200s at the fastest.
I double checked all the exposure levels on my camera and they were all set to 0. I tried using auto mode, and it would set my shutter speed anywhere from 1/4 to 1/20s. On the "info" screen, the exposure bar tells me that the picture will be very underexposed (the arrow goes all the way to the right) for any setting above 1/100s or so. I tried resetting the camera with the two green dotted buttons as well as resetting the custom settings but nothing changed.
I'm thinking I probably messed with some setting while I was playing around with the buttons, but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have any clue what's wrong? BTW I'm referring to indoor shooting. Outdoor shooting is okay, although it still tells me my picture will be partially underexposed, with the exposure bar in the middle of the right side, but at least I don't get a black picture.
Thanks.
