Recently I am getting intermittent "Err" when shooting the D800 (maybe once in 20 shots). When the "Err" happens, the photo is over-exposed. Observing the shutter mechanism without the lens seem to show the aperture lever intermittently does not drop down fully.

Anyone kena this before? Any DIY solution? Or it is a serious problem that needs to go to Nikon service center?

happened to my d70 and d610 after some prolonged use. my initial findings that time were something to do with the mount.

just had to remove and reattach the lens and it was fine again. Sometimes removing battery also helps.

same error but maybe slightly diff symptoms and fix tho. Hope that helps
