Re: Mystifying NX1 problem

No worries about attitude James, all questions are fair when we confront a Mystery.

Yes I was in manual mode, as always, but my settings were correct.  The different nature of this problem is shown by the fact that screen/viewfinder cycled between clear image and virtual black, with no intervention by me: a moment of clarity, than blackout.

The problem's still not returned.

Temperature, as suggested earlier, that may have affected the battery here may also have been the cause of another problem that has not occurred lately, that is:  an unwanted mode switch, from normal to timer, so that when I press the shutter I get a maddening delay instead of a click.  Heat may be a cause there.  Once it appears it could take a while to shake off,  minutes of retrying.  Nothing works,  then it goes away,  Anyone ever encounter this?

On the subject of batteries, does anybody have experience over time with the Watson BP 1900?  At B&H this is the only replacement left for the Samsung.  Just had a a Watson LP-E6(-JWP) go dead, after not much use.
