The crop will eliminate anything that happens outside of the sensor area. At worst you'll lose the worst of the vignetting, at best you'll lose all of it. Because the worst of the barrel distortion …

Tearing the screws from the housing will have damaged the threads, and I doubt Nikon would be willing to re-tap them, especially on the D90's plastic body. … My advice would be to remove the lens ring if you can, cap the lens, wrap the body tightly in plastic wrap to keep anything from entering it and send the whole thing to Nikon for evaluation. …

Several of the later AF and early AF-D families of Nikkors released in the 1990s were good lenses. I still use these two regularly: AF Zoom Nikkor 35-80mm f/4.0-5.6D . If you can find enough light …

Phil Harvey's ExifTool works on NRW files and will do the job for you. It's a command line tool, but it's very powerful and will save you a lot of manual work. If you can determine the difference in …

A flash on the camera's hot shoe is in a known location relative to the film plane. From that, it's easy to calculate where to place the zoom head so the light covers the area the camera actually see …

That isn't damage, it's the rubber flap that covers the hole where the cord for an external power source enters the camera. You'll find an illustration of how it works on page 311 of the owner's manu …

The Nikon DK-22 Eyepiece Adapter (~US$5.00), which clips onto the viewfinder and has a threaded hole at the back, would be a good starting point. …

$200 for the lens plus $375 for Nikon to fix it still puts you ahead of the game if it's the push-pull version of the lens and way ahead if it's the two-ring version. …

There's a custom setting (a4 on the D5200, a-something-else on other Nikon bodies) that will switch the exposure meter in the viewfinder to a rangefinder that indicates of how close to in focus you are …

From the card's perspective, there really isn't any difference between what the camera does while formatting and when it's writing pictures. It's all just data written to blocks on the device* and yo …

I'm sure Nikon knows, but I'm also sure they're not telling beyond what they cover in the owner's manual. You can, with some experimentation, approximate it. …
