If you’re a Nikon D5000 owner, listen up immediately. Nikon has released a service advisory regarding this model’s power sources.

Symptoms of a potential problem include:

  1. The camera cannot be operated when the power switch is on, even with a fully-charged battery.
  2. The camera cannot be operated with the EH-5a AC Adapter connected through the EP-5 Power Connector and the power switch on.

Nikon will post potentially affected serial numbers on July 23. For more on the advisory, visit Nikon USA’s website.

Anyone out there with these power problems?
