Hi everyone,
I’m a new Nikonite, converted from Canon…
My first purchase was a slightly used Nikon D7000.
I haven’t used it with an external flash until last night. Recently I purchased a Yongnuo YN-560 II Speedlight Flash, and a Cowboystudio SYK-3 Optical Slave Trigger.. last night was the 1[SUP]st[/SUP] time I used this equipment (just so you know what set up I had last night when my problem started)
So, Last night during a shoot, I started having problems with my camera locking up towards the end of my shoot.
It seemed fine for the first hour or so, but towards the end of the shoot, as I was shooting rapid shots in a row, my camera would completely lock up. Even when I flipped it to OFF, nothing happened. All of the lights and display stuff was still showing… it was very odd.
I’ve never seen this on a camera before, even my Nikon.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
If I let the camera sit for about 30-45 seconds it would start working again just fine, but then lock up again after 6-7 shots.
Any help would be much appreciated
