Out shooting today and when I went to review pic on rear LCD of D850 it was blank. Images are recording but there are some other issues. The AF modes cannot be changed and the light when you pull back the power switch isn't working. I bought the camera from a friend but sods law it was bought through ProGadgetUk who look to have done a disappearing act leaving lots of disappointed customers. They do seem to have an Amazon Uk presence but doubt I'll get any joy.
I've tried different batteries, lenses and cards so it looks like it is a proper issue. I have also noted that it takes a bit of time for the camera to shut down. It has done this since I got it but it was never an issue. Lastly my Snapbridge App on my phone told me I had a firmware update. I think I used the app once when I got the camera and the camera was nowhere near when the notification popped up. If there is a firmware update I can't do it as I need the rear LCD to select options.
I'm getting my mate to email ProGadgetsUK but don't hold out any hope. I have a ton of Nikon gear but their professional service seems to have stopped accepting UK applicants. Any ideas of what to do next greatly welcomed.
