Hey,
I recently purchased a used d5100. I have been using my camera for the past week or so and it has been working great. Yesterday I tried switching to live view, and it stopped working, giving me the "Error! Press Shutter Release Button". I can take pictures under regular circumstances using manual or auto focus but when I flick the shutter release button to go into live view, I see it quickly (barely visible but definitely there) go into live view with the grid and then display the error.
I can set the shutter to stay open for any set duration and I can lock the mirror up to clean the sensor. It only seems to be with the live view switch. I have attached a video of what it looks like to switch into live view without the lens.
The camera is no longer under warranty and I don't wan't to shell out $200+ if I don't have to. Would anybody have a clue what this could be or know of a way that I could fix this?
