Did my D80 just die on me?

It could be shutter error like many other have mentioned here or If you are repeatedly getting a blinking "ERR" warning on the LCD, and this occurs with multiple lenses, then your D80 probably needs to be checked out. See the Troubleshooting section of your D80 instruction manual, specifically the bottom of page 132.


It's unlikely to get any better, and will probably fail completely eventually if the source of the ERR warnings is not diagnosed. If you send it directly to Nikon, AFAIK the repair estimate is free, and will only cost you shipping. If the estimated repair cost is too high, you can decline the repair and they will only charge you for return shipping. It's difficult to speculate as to the repair cost, as there could be any number of electronic components causing the fault. It would be best to let the techs at Nikon do the diagnostic work to determine the cause of the fault.
