[QUOTE="hark, post: 739848, member: 13196"] I always used to turn off VR before shutting down any camera. One day I had forgotten - not sure if I changed the lens, but the first time afterwards when I pressed the shutter button (D750), the viewfinder went black and ERR was displayed on the top. A second press of the shutter resolved the issue. Every day for a while, the first shutter press wound up causing the same problem. Then I noticed if I waited to turn off the camera until it went into standby, it rarely ever happened. Now I usually leave VR on when turning off the camera, but recently when I removed my 300mm PF and the 1.7x TC, that's when the Sport VR began acting up. Normally I always turn VR off when removing a lens, but that time I forgot - and was aware of it right away. I'm sure the VR wasn't active, but it's a hard lesson to learn. Now I will always try to remember to turn it off before swapping lenses. Usually I only swap lenses when the body is off, but I didn't that time. :( [/QUOTE]
