Hi guys and gals,
Just home from a wedding today in Byron Bay. Got some great stuff on the beach - great light and a beautiful sunset, but, EEK! midway through the day, my new *ist D (I have two now), started doing some strange things. Just on a whim, I turned on the preview screen to have a quick flick through what I'd been shooting, only to find a whole lot of black screens with nothing but red and blue lines running horizontally through them! They all had appropriate file numbers but no image! I "lost" about 20 shots, which luckily due to circumstances were able to be "re-shot". Anyways, it progressively got worse throughout the day, sometimes with 6 or 7 shots in a row doing it. I changed the batteries, and the lenses, thinking it may be either of these, but it still did it. I then found that if I shot only single frames, and let the camera sit for a few seconds between frames, it seemed to not do it. This completely sucks though, as my shooting style at weddings is candid, and quick, often shooting four or five frames at a time in quick succession.
Any ideas what it could be, or am I going to have to send it in for warranty? aaaargh, I have a really busy period coming up - I can't be without both bodies!!
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!
