[QUOTE="TwistedThrottle, post: 751016, member: 46724"] Well if you are praying to a god named Ba'al, you might need to sacrifice the D5500 to the next thunderstorm that rolls through. You could try Santa, but that might be a while- I'm still waiting on that Nash skateboard I asked for more than 30 years ago. Have you done the green dot reset? When you cleaned the contacts, did you check for any bent pins or anything abnormal? Did you just rub the contacts off with microfiber or did you use something like deoxit to improve conductivity? Did you double check both menus for BBF? The one to disable the shutter for focus and also the one to assign the back button? Did you try manual, aperture priority, shutter priority and auto? When manually focusing, do you still get the green, (or white) focus assistant in the view finder? Does it matter if its in live view or not? You could always try dropping it from really high up, but I've never heard of this working for anyone. Ever. I think that's all I got. If you do the last one, take pics :p [/QUOTE]
