Switching on camera , everything seems to work, LCD lights up...menu works...Mirror is in the " UP " position, ERR shows on top LCD ...depressing shutter button , mirror flips Down and then Up again..ERR disappears..depressing shutter button again causes the Aperture Lever to Move..depressing shutter button again (3rd time )...Mirror flips down/Up...it seems as if the mirror " thinks " that the shutter is open...everything goes so fast that it s difficult to know for shure,but I`ve got the impression that the shutter is Not working..yet it does not look damaged at all, on the whole the camera looks as new,certainly well cared for...and when ACS can give me a decent quote ( there`s still the freight cost Denm.- England -Denm ) then I ill send it in, for looking at what I got , the D2Xs has costed me say 100 quid..if ACS can fix it for a reasonable fee then I would have a very Nice Camera for an okay price...just trying to be fair here :-)
Before you go any further, try replacing the clock battery, CR1616, it lives in the main battery compartment. Then check that the camera is set to something sensible and have another try.
