Citat:
While Nikon take great measures to assure high quality in its imaging products, it has recently come to our attention that an electronic component related to power control in a small number of Nikon D5000 cameras does not meet factory specifications and may, in rare cases, prevent the camera from turning on, thus preventing operation of the camera.
How to identify when this issue occurs
The camera cannot be operated when the power switch is turned on. This happens when the camera is powered either by fully-charged battery or with the Power Connector EP-5 and AC Adapter EH-5a connected.
Is your D5000 affected by this issue?
To check if your D5000 needs to be returned for service, click the “Check Serial Number” link below. If your camera serial number is verified as requiring service, additional instructions and contact information will be provided.
Check Serial Number
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that Nikon customers may experience as a result of this issue.
Nikon remains committed to providing only the highest quality photographic products and hopes that you will continue to choose Nikon for your imaging needs.

Notice for users of the Nikon D5000 (updated 22nd July) (zvanično obaveštenje i simptomi, Nikon Europe)
Ovo tek da se ne zaboravi (kao što se često zaboravlja) da je svačja elektronika podložna bubicama, te da ovakve situacije nisu karakteristične samo sa neke druge proizvođače
Često se po netu (a posebno ovde i na jednom drugom forumu) potencira "robusnost & pouzdanost" kao odlika ove firme. Ovo, kao i svi pređašnji događaji (D3, D300 i baterija itd) su dokaz da nepogrešivi ne postoje, a posebno je dokaz da kada proizvodnja poraste, na površinu počinju da isplivavaju i sve negativne posledice takvog trenda.
Nažalost, kupci su ti koji uvek nadrljaju zbog ovakvih "nemilih događaja", nebitno kom su se carstvu priklonili.
Pozdrav
