Broken Shutter


Recommended Posts

Hello. My XH1 stopped working in the middle of a client shoot on Saturday. The shutter is stuck down. This happened while shooting a few bursts in continuous shooting mode and then switching back to single. Electronic first curtain was on. I've tried removing battery/SD card/lens overnight and it's still not working. All buttons are non responsive. On turning it on the shutter automatically sounds like it's tiring and then the screen shows message to reboot camera. This is quite unacceptable for a week old pro grade camera. Almost died out of embarrassment during the shoot lol. Luckily had a backup GH5 and Xpro2 to continue the shoot. Hoping this is not a widespread issue

 

Here's a quick phone video from when it happened
