[QUOTE="floyd, post: 638425, member: 44046"] This is my first post on the forum. I've been reading a good number of posts on various topics and gained a much better understanding of photography. But I'm having a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with (If already discussed, please provide the link.) Approximately 10-15% of the time I press the shutter it either doesn't fire or there's a significant lag before it finally fires. I've noticed that removing then reinstalling my zoom lens, the problem goes away. But then the auto-focus (back focus) won't work. It seems when the auto-focus is working, then I experience the intermittent shutter problem. But when the shutter is working fine, then I have an intermittent auto-focus problem. I've tried a fixed lens but still had the problem. I've tried a different flash card, but still had the problem. The problem has occurred at all shutter speeds, all apertures. I always shoot in manual mode, so I'm not sure if there's a problem a shutter/aperture priority or full automatic. The problem also occurs when using a manual cable release. The camera isn't that old, maybe three years. And the shutter actuations are easily under 10,000. The camera has never been dropped or misused. I did a lot of internet research but didn't find any consistent shutter problems with the 7200. I did see a recurring warning that apparently appears on the screen, but my camera shows no such warnings. I think sending it in for repair (Where's the best place to send it? Nikon? Other?) is my next step, but I thought as a last resort I'd join the forum to see if any of you folks, who are far more learned about this stuff than I am, might have some thoughts on what could be wrong. But my worry about sending it in is they'll replace the shutter and the problem will persist. Maybe I should just sell it and get a used full-frame D750, but then all my DX lenses are crap. UGH! Note: There's a typo in my title. It should read "low" not "slow" shutter actuations. [/QUOTE]
