No joy.  I didn’t really have anything to lose, but it didn’t work

Try doing a factory reset. It’s a pain because you lose your user settings,
but it might straighten out your camera.

New stupid trick

2022-06-22 Thread Larry Colen
There was a bird in my front yard, I went to photograph it, and it didn’t fly 
away.  However my K3-II developed a new stupid trick.

In normal TTL mode, when I press the shutter it will seem to be fine for a 
moment, then it’ll lift the mirror, open the shutter and freeze up, refusing to 
do anything, even power off, until I remove the battery.  Once the battery has 
been removed, replaced and the power switch turned on, it’ll reset to being 
able to see through the lens, until I next press the shutter.

If I put it in live view or video mode, it locks up directly.

sigh.

I suppose that I could try reinstalling the firmware.
