The flash won't fire on my nikon 5700, SB just blinks red. I sent it to Nikon UK to have it repaired since the lcd and viewfinder are black also. They quoted me £146.00 (around $300) just to have the flash fixed. I faxed over to them 11 pages (could have sent more!)of people on the internet having the same problem. I think Nikon should admit there is a problem with this model. Hi, I HAVE TWO NIKON COOLPIX 5700 CAMERAS AND BOTH HAVE THE SAME FLASH PROBLEM, THEY WON'T FLASH.BOTH CAMERAS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED FOR THIS FLASH PROBLEM BY NIKON, ONE WORKED FOR 2 MONTHS THEN WOULD NOT FLASH, THE OTHER ONE WORKED GOOD FOR FOUR MONTHS AND WOULD NOT FLASH. I DEFINITELY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS CAMERA TO MY WORST ENEMY. THANK YOU.
