So, as curiosity often kills a cat, i wanted to try will my Nikon D5000 shoot a picture while disassembled half way... :dejection:
The camera is disassembled because I painted the case as it was very worn out and ugly, but few minutes ago, out of curiosity, i tried putting a battery and holding it with my finger in place, turned the camera on, pressed the shutter button, and the mirror locked up but shutter stayed closed, and that's it... I tried restarting the camera and removing the battery and trying again, but when I press the shutter button again, it only makes a weak noise by trying to move the mirror up again, while it's already up.
While looking through the viewfinder, there is an Err blinking in place of shutter speed setting.
What to do now?!
