I just upgraded (finally after 5-6 years) from a Nikon D3200 to the 5500, and I've only done three shoots with it so far, but the other day I was at the zoo, hadn't taken a photo in a minute or two, and had the camera around my neck, not touching it but still on, and suddenly it snapped 3-4 photos very quickly on its own. It was startling. It was not in any kind of mode for delays or timers, it's not like the shutter had been open and then closed... It was really weird.
I picked up the camera from MPB. I got a great deal, and I've emailed them about a few issues I have with it, but I'm concerned it may be refurbished or faulty. I literally paid $444 for it, which was one of the best deals on the internet, but the company had good reviews.
Any idea what this could be? Is it something that is going to cause me bigger problems down the road? Or maybe just part of it is dysfunctional? I hate to send it back!
