Shutter or sensor failure ?

13 years 3 months ago #17122 by Rob pix4u2
I am noticing on my last 2 or 3 downloads of hockey games that one of my Nikon D90 bodies is showing an increasing number of blank (black) frames at random intervals. I changed cards this last game to see if the 8GB card I was using was corrupted but the 2GB card i used showed about 50 black frames. Has any one had this problem with the D90 ? It is less than 6 months old and has about 5000 frames shot so far. Exif info shows all the settings and such but no image. (And yes the lens cap was off the entire time)

Were you using flash?

Was anything captured (if you push it up in PP)?

Available light-no flash and no image in PP. completely black but out of approximately 200 frames some images while about 50 black interspersed among them

Mmmm sounds like a sticking shutter since nothing came out.
