SOURCE: Nikon N65 won't take picture

The problem is, that you have a lens witch has an aparture ring on it and some exposure modes needs it to be fixed on the smallest aparture (e. f22). When its done the camera should not say fEE no longer.

Nikon N65 with Nikkor 35~80mm AF lens will not focus or shoot

N65s were notorious for bad shutter release buttons. The metal is thinner than a strand of hair and they break. Search Ebay and see if the part is available to replace (note: Nikon stopped selling parts last year).

How to change the shutter speed on my nikon n65 film 35mm slr camera

In the manual and shutter-priority modes (set the dial to "M" or "S"), turn the command dial to change the shutter speed. In the aperture-priority mode (set the dial to "A"), turning the command dial changes the aperture and the camera will set the shutter speed appropriately.

If you need a manual, you may download a copy from here.

N65 will not focus or shoot

Make sure it has good fresh batteries. Look at the film, make sure it is loaded correctly, or that there is film in the camera. and last look at the shutter. Open the back of the camera and the shutter is right in front of the film on the lens side of the back. if there shutter is not flat, but one or more of the little black blades are out of place then that is the problem. That shoud be sent back for service. It is not something you can push back into place without potentially doing more damage.

I have a Nikon N65 and I just replaced the batteries. When I turn the camera on, I can't change the shutter speed/aperture or anything (on any setting..manual, auto, etc) and Err flashes.

Camera has a fatal error and should be sent in for service, or replaced. A used on may actually cost less than repairing your old one. Check out KEH.com

Nikon N65

cmhennings,
If you haven't found out by now mode settings are:
M = Manual
A = Aperture
S = Shutter
P = Program
If you are looking for a manual or just a camera manual in general check the public library photographic section to learn more about film cameras, you may find a N65 book

PICTURE

vickiep24,
Since you didn't mention anything about shooting in manual settings I'm going to guess you have been and the camera work there in shutter or aperture mode, so make sure you set your lens's F-stop back to the auto position - check the dot on the lens ring with the f-stop numbers (usually in red) like the f-22 make sure they are aligned when in auto so when the camera needs more light and the lens can fully open to give it the light it is asking for, then it will shoot otherwise it won't. Does that make sense.

Auto Focus Nikon N65

amyfesh,
I have been finding a lot of these concerns while looking back at unsolved SLR issues, it shoots at the ceiling or the sky because there is just enough light the camera detects. Check the lens ring for a white dot and the ring for the aperture rotate the ring so the red f-stop (usually in red and f-22 or somewhere near that number) align, now the lens will open enough to allow the light that the camera has determined that it needs, now it will allow the shutter to open. I just joined the fixya in December, so I hope to hear from you if this helped and if you have any other questions about the N65.
