[QUOTE="snoo, post: 378407, member: 34316"] So I bought a D5300 solely for the birth of my first baby daughter. Being a n00b, I purchased it a few months earlier so I could get used to the camera. Took maybe 1500 shots, all good. There we we we're day 1 in hospital about to go under the knife.. I run a test shot to see the lighting in the operating theater ... Murphy meets Nikon ... [B]"Press Shutter Release Button Again"[/B] WHAT THE HELL NIKON!?!? The only time in the history of ever that I need to take a photo and Nikon failed me. After a few more shots, it appeared to be hit & miss, and turning the camera off & on again seemed to clear the error. Luckily for me it was still taking & saving important day 1 baby photos. I played around with it for a bit & determined it was only causing the error when a reduced aperture was needed.. (f/5.6 to 22) . So all my previous shots were at full open aperture regardless of the setting. I took the lens off, fired a couple of shots & noticed the aperture armature was stuck. Took a few more shots (in manual mode / high speed 5fps) and at the same time, gently pushed down on the armature. It became unstuck, & all works fine now. I've taken maybe 100 shots since at various apertures & all looks fine. Probably the only time I'll ever buy a cheap body. Hope this helps someone. [ATTACH=CONFIG]123574._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
