Usually the shutter works or it doesn't. Did you try a factory reset or do a firmware update on the camera. Have you tried to reproduce the problem with a different lens? Have you tried different settings. When did the problem start happening, after, a firmware update, new lens, new flash, dropping the camera, outside in the elements rain? Has anything changed? Battery fully charged?RESEARCH wrote: Hello
I'm a 73 year old with a Nikon D90 which I bought from B&H (as reconditioned) back in 2008. The shutter count is only about 20K. Although I've lightly cleaned the moving mechanisms, I suspect the internal shutter mechanism is hanging up. Although I'm skilled at small repairs I don't think this is something I'd tackle unless I had a good tutorial. I've also read the shutter problem is somewhat common with the D90. So I'm shopping around for a used D90 body.
Thank You
I am not sure what you mean the view finder illumination. Do you mean you cannot see through the lens at all once it goes into problematic mode? Only the bottom green led light showing exposure?RESEARCH wrote: Hello r1ch and thanx for the reply!
"try to take multiple shots does that work"? (camera Menu ISO Off - Camera Mode M with the Lens Off) Yes I'm able to take multiple shots ....
"mirror lock up feature used to clean the sensor. Try and enable that and take a shot"
Camera will successfully focus with (normal viewfinder illumination) but ONE shot only. Camera will again go back to Problematic Mode, not allowing anymore shots to focus, activate shutter, or (exhibit normal viewfinder illumination).
"Have you tried to use live mode and take several pictures that way?"
Camera will successfully focus thru LCD Screen and take multiple shots.
However back to viewfinder view and focus, the camera will again go back to Problematic Mode, not allowing anymore shots to focus, activate shutter, or (exhibit normal viewfinder illumination).
Thank You r1ch
