about my a2..

Ok, so i shoot with an a2 and sometimes when i press the shutter button, the curtain seems like it goes down and gets stuck and i am forced to tap the button again to release it, does anyone know why this is?, i was thinking like maybe because i use the autofocus and i hit it when its focusing so it confuses it?, i dont know, or is there a bug in my camera?

sry for my poor explanantion

that is your shutter hanging up mostlikely, BUT maybe a battery change will fix it? what mode are you in(M, AV, TV....)?

the battery is new, its most likely the shutter being hung up, is there anyway to prevent that?, im in either m to x mode..

Well did you get any bad images(light leak) from it... like those from a camera with a shutter leaf out of sync?

open the back and check :)

otherwise the shutter is electronic(I would think) so it could be a faulty wire/chip/bourd.

Try removing the batteries for 5-10 minutes and then putting them back in :) As odd as that sounds, many a camera have been fixed from a battery removal/replacement. Electronics are weird sometimes!

If all else fails.... repair may be the answer :(

nah, the images came out good, ill try the batteries suggestion though!

thanks
