You just got me a 200$ d610 with 50mm. Had stuck (not working shutter) i saw this, tried it, and whalla. Thank you, the guy selling it wasnt so happy when i checked it, knew the issue, payed him, then fixed in under 10 seconds. He said, Damn! How did you know that. I said i watched a youtube about it, saw you have one with same issue for sale cheap. I got lucky. He didnt know i pushed it over while looking at camera, realized it was fixable. Than paid, it was that easy. He really only needed to tap it some. Hehe, thank you. I look for d610 shutter sticking issues for sale.

wow. i cant believe a 2017 video saved me lots of money and stress today in 2021.I use a D600 and D90, but i use more the D90 as i still need better lens for my D600. I am busy packing my gear for camping weekend and i decided to test the D90 before packing, and for some reason, it just didnt sound right, so took did what you did aswell, checked the photo and for me, it was complete black. Tested without lens and thats when i saw that mirror wasnt moving at all. Quick search on youtube, and this video was #1 on the list. Now my D600 is working fine. Thank you James.

like many others have said! thank you so much!! I had already printed my nikon repair label and was planning on taking it to fedex tuesday to ship for repair when thankfully it was raining today and I was killing time and happened across this video...in my case I was an hour in to a milkyway time lapse when suddenly the images were all cut off other than the top 3rd....took me all of 6 minutes to fix...5:21 was watching your entire video before attacking the DIY repair...plastic screwdriver carefully placed to nudge the right side of the camera body and 1 press of the button and bam! fully working camera again! ... on a downside I was hoping nikon would say the fix was big $$ at which point thats all the excuse I needed to get a new 850 ;)

I have a D810 and dropped my camera from about 3 feet onto a concrete floor. Banged the top corner by the play button. Had the same issue, but it was on the opposite side you had shown. I thought is was the lens. I did the same as you described and heard a snap and the mirror must have popped back into place. I will check the focus when back in the studio to compare to my other 810. Thanks a ton! Saved my some money.

My shutter mirror glass (mirror box) fell out of the body. It would get locked up, when I try to take photo. I can see the inner box move but it get jam. I did not inspect the lever. I was looking to replace the Camera with something better but it's cheaper on sending my Nikon D3200 for repair through Nikon. Should I also have them inspect the sensor? Since the D3200 fell onto the floor from the counter top.

Loved your video especially the beginning which put your camera malfunction in context. As a professional photographer myself I can well imagine how upsetting it was to have a camera malfunction in the middle of an important job. That said I recently began getting the dreaded err message on my Nikon D610. I at first thought that the shutter had failed but when I checked my records I discovered that the camera had only around 50,000 shutter actuations so that seemed less likely. After viewing your video I tried gently prying on the right side of the mirror and it fixed the problem! I do wonder what caused the mirror to stick down in the first place so I probably won't be using the camera for critical jobs in the future. But it may serve for less critical work. Thanks for sharing your tip!

Hi, does anyone know how to fix the problem if your mirror is stuck in the position at 4:57 ? I toggle the mirror around to go down but it instantly goes back up in the position as like at the time stamp. About 2 times I managed to somehow get it unstuck, but f I place the lens on again and try to take a picture, it gets stuck again and gives the same shutter error again. I've only seen solutions where the mirror gets stuck on the right side with that pin, but not when it gets stuck at the top. It probably doesn't get "stuck" per se, it just seems to not be able to stay down in the standard position.

i really hoped this would help. i’m 13 and i love photography i have since i was 8. it’s been a big part of my life with my grandfather being a professional photographer.. i got a camera about a year ago.. (Nikon D40) and it will work for one or two shots then say “Error. Press shutter release button again.” it’s super heartbreaking since the only other camera i currently have is a Canon Powershot, which is a great camera.. i just love shooting with the D40! i really can’t afford to get it fixed professionally and my grandfather currently lives hours away and i don’t get to see him. i miss taking pictures of wildlife and plants and i just moved to a gorgeous state that’s blooming with exactly that. i don’t know what to do! if anyone can help please do! i feel so sad!

Dude, I should have listened to you the first time!! I had this problem, thought it was different because it didn't seemed jammed when I lifted up the mirror, and so I sent it in, and paid $600 for repairs (well actually $800 because my flash was broken too which Nikon forced me to fix, grrr). Then, conveniently right after the Nikon warranty of the repair expired, it happened AGAIN. Exact same "ERR" message, exact same thing with the mirror not going up. I was so furious I revisited this video and pried it like you said and voila it works. I am so thankful to you, and absolutely DESPISE Nikon now. It was such an easy fix - took me 30 seconds - but, no, Nikon told me I had to send my camera across Canada to pay them $600 for it. A big finger flip to Nikon and a big hug to James Black for this video.
