Hello forum!
I was on a very nice hiking trip this past week.
My main system is a Sony A7ii with some native glass but also some adapted Canon lenses (Sigma MC-11). For this trip I decided to get a cheap camera, full frame, to go with the glass I already own and the 5D classic was, to me, a no-brainer since I already had a 16-35 /2.8! Perfect for landscape.
Though on the second last day (thank god it wasn't earlier), it started to misfocus and act out a bit. I decided to try reseating the lens, but as I popped the release button to screw the lens off it twists to the wrong direction. I managed to twist it that way becuase I was sitting in a weird spot and yeah.. Though it's worth mentioning that absolutely no force was added to twist it that way, it went as smoothly as if it would go the right direction. No snapping, no breaking, it just spun on the bayonett.
After that it simply wont start.
I've tried different batteries, starting with no lens on, different memory cards and so on.
Basically everything that can be reseated and removed without loosening up screws has been tested.
A bit of googling later I havent found anyone with the same problem at all.
Do you guys have any idea?
