X-T1 freezing problem

[Minniature]

Hi everybody, I encountered a problem with my X-T1 and I was hoping somebody could help me. 

The other day I was out shooting and all of the sudden the camera started freezing to the point that I had to get the battery out to get it up and running again.That happend at least ten times in one afternoon so it's not an isolated case, So in most cases the viewfinder behaves normaly, I can see the picture on it but all the controls on the camera are frozen, I can't press the shutter button,can't turn it off etc. I am using a 18-135mm lens and both the body and the lens have the latest firmware.

Is there anybody else with this problem?

I had two freezings (black screen, no respond till remove batteries) long time ago on my X-T1, with old FW, but than I realized it was caused by changing the lenses without switching camera off. I still do it occasionally but do not observe this issue anymore.

I did not change lenses at all, 18-135 was on it the whole time. Also my screen did not go black, it was working normally. just the controls were unavailable....and I forgot to mention that it happened on two or three occasions, basically in the last month or so whenever I use my camera this happens. My warranty was only one year so it's expired and I have a trip coming in two weeks so I was hoping somebody knew the cause of freezing since it is my only camera and sending it to repair now is not an option

A suggestion....one you might have done:

 

Format the card and reset the camera....

 

Cheap internet advice.

Good luck.

Formated the card and did the reset already, unfortunately did not help. Oh I see know, so admins can merge the two topics then or lock this one,I see it is the same problem.
