p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · whining noise..


lately there has been a whining noise when I turn off the camera. My only lens is the 14-24, so this happens when the lens is attached. It lasts maybe 4 seconds, and it is intermittent at best. I haven't noticed any ill affects from the lens or camera.

I finally need to send it in for the dust issue. Should I mention this to Nikon, or maybe they will test it when the shutter is replaced? Anyone have this "problem"? Camera only has 6K clicks or so.

Sounds like it could be the dust removal working.

Dust removal is a high pitched whining sound if it's quiet enough to hear it. It's barely audible on most cameras. Check your settings and if it's set to clean on start up & shut down I bet that's it.

Does this mostly happen when you pull a camera out around your kids? I often hear a whining noise when I do that, too.

My grandson lights up like a Christmas tree when the camera comes out. My niece heads for a gun store if you try to get her picture.

I hear loud whining noises whenever I show my Canon-using friends the shadow recovery abilities of the D800…

I also think it is the anti-dust piezo vibrator or whatever. You can activate it manually to duplicate the sound.

A whining noise is what all the photographers will be making at Photokina.

I've heard the screech on every d300 I've come across, but never on anything else.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I didn't notice it before.

At least you can hear it. I can't hear it. For all I know mine is turned on all the time.

That's bad news, because your eyesight will fail next. At least then you won't have to bother spending so much time on post processing

actually a whining noise is the sound of a flight crew after arrival at a gate and the engines are shut down

A scientific survey was conducted to determine the cause of this issue ...
