[QUOTE="nickt, post: 638442, member: 4923"] I think the camera would give an error of some sort if the actual shutter had a problem. My guess is something else is wrong or broken and not giving the camera the ok to fire the shutter. Make sure your settings are good. For back button focus, you should be set for af-c. Menu a1 should be set for release priority. Menu a4 should say 'off' (set for 'AF ON only'). Set focus area mode to single point and make sure its in the center. With these settings, you should be able to auto focus all day long with the back button. The shutter should also click all day long without regard to if the camera is focused or not. Try that and see what you get. Also make sure the lens is clicking in solidly when mounting. Give it a twist in both directions without pushing the lens release. I say this because I've heard of more than one person holding the lens release button while installing the the lens which could allow the lens to tighten past the click and cause all sorts of weird problems. If the camera won't release the shutter with the settings above, remove the lens and set the camera mode dial to M. Pick some random shutter speed and fire away, the shutter should release every time. [/QUOTE]
