My 3200 has become very slow. It takes a long time for the monitor to show what's in front of me at startup, and to return to shooting mode after I have taken a picture, and to return to shooting mode after I have looked at the pictures I have taken. I've tried reformatting the card, taking out the memory card and using just the camera memory, buying new batteries and making sure they were fully charged before putting them in, and making sure the battery type matches the options in the battery-type menu. It is, of course, very hard to take spontaneous pictures with these long wait times. Also, is it normal for there to be a slight delay between pressing the shutter button and the camera taking the picture? If people or animals are involved, they have often moved and changed from the desired position by the time the shutter goes. Hope you can help!
Use a faster SD card. The write speed number is what you look for. The greater the number the better the card.

Are those NiMH batteries? Have you tried resetting the camera? If no standard way, just take out batteries for a few minutes, the more the merrier, let the tension build, and replace them. Try tapping on the lens area, it might loose something up. Best I can do, know it aint much ;] Good luck!
SOURCE: will not take picture
Some digital SLR camera have a mirror lock and others have a viewfinder shutter In each case this will be a knob in the region of the viewfinder that turns. Check that this model has it and it has not be inadvertently turned. Then come back

I have the same problem with my coolpix L101. Even rechargeble nimh battery's with high capacity (2500 mAh) are empty after 3 shots.

There is a buffer in your camera that processes your images for storage on your memory card. The larger the file size, the more the buffer is being used per image. That will slow down your image transfer.
Also, memory cards are not just about the size of the memory card. It's very about about transfer rate. Once the buffer is ready to send the image to the card, the card has to be able to accept the MB quickly. If your card has a transfer rate of less than 255, it's going to be slow, especially with larger images.

False low-battery warnings, focusing, and metering problems may be the result of poor contact between the body and certain lenses. Try removing your lens and thoroughly cleaning the contacts. I would recommend using a contact cleaner, but rubbing alcohol will also work. Remember that the whole ring needs to be cleaned. If that does not work, try scraping the battery contacts.
