Hi folks
I own a D200 with a happy service until 4 weeks a go. The symptom is after a 20 minutes session under the sun (temperature around 32 celsius) the focus turn the focus ring to the minimum distance and stays the and not focusing. I switch off the camera for a couple of minutes and it started to work.
At first I thought it was My Sigma 100-300 F4, but today I decide to take both the Sigma and my 70-300 Vr, just in case. During the session today the problem reapered and I say to a friend of mine that my lens is gone and have to go to be serviced. When I changed the lens to the VR, the same thing happen and at the moment I'm pretty sure the D200 is the problem.
The camera is 5 years old, almost 180k shutter releases, the firmware was updated last year and it works fine when cooled. Does anyone had a similar problem and if yes, what was the resolution?
Many thanks
