I really like my PEN-F that I bought a few months ago. However, I do have a serious issue. The shutter "locks" in a random manner. At first, I thought it had to do with the 25mm 1.2 lens. However, last week I experienced the same issue with the 17mm mounted last week during a trip.
What happens? When I take a photo, I see a black screen in the viewfinder and I am not able to press the shutter. Turning off and on does not help. Only when I remove the battery and re-insert it, I hear somewhat of a click and it works again. I've installed the most recent camera firmware and use filly charged batteries. I also did a reset. Nothing works.
Before sending it in for service, I thought to ask here if anyone of you has experienced similar issues and, if so, what you did to solve it?
Your help will be greatly appreciated! I do have an upcoming street photography event on June 10, so when I send it in for service, I will not have it back in time.
BTW: I will post some photos of last week's trip as soon as I processed them and reconfigured my upload process (which got lost when the LR DB got corrupted a while ago and I had to reinstall LR)
