Camera error on start up


Recommended Posts

I have had my a7mkii for about 18 months.It is my back up camera. Has only had approx 400 shutter operations.

On a shoot this week on start up message comes up camera error switch off and restart. Tried this it works for a while then same message appear. I have contacted sport they say they have never heard of this and that I should send back for repair at my cost. Camera has never been knocked or near water or high humidity.

Try the hard reset and if thaz not enuf try reloading firmware. 

   

Hard reset involves removing battery, switching on the dead 

camera [no battery] and pressing, and briefly holding down,  

every control button - twice. This is to drain residual "code".   

 

Takes five minutes and sometimes works on various brands 

and model of digital camera. Do that before trying firmware. 

Sony always has one answer :-( "Send it in". Hesitate at first !   

    

Becuz a hard reset is a worthwhile, but kinda generic, trick ...

I recommend doing an online search for any extra info on 

improvements, brand-specific twists, etc etc.
