Re: 5D Shutter problem

Mine does the same thing. The clicks and the shaking on startup are symptons of antishake failure. However the posted fix worked for me. I also have the red light problem. Cleaning the contacts stopped that behavior. Maybe once you clean up the battery, the one minute shut down will work for you.

Thank you all for your suggestions - but none worked for me .

I've noticed that when I shut down the camera - the red light near the CF card compartment keep on working - although the power is off. I have to take of the battery to stop it.

Another thing I've noticed - when I turn the camera on I hear some "clicks" for few seconds.

Any suggestions?
