I bought a used X-T4 about 3 months ago. It has 8,500 actuations on the shutter (7,000 of which I put on it) and worked great until today.

8500 is nothing.

I know... what a bummer.

My best guess at how I broke it: I was trying something akin to spin zooming using the focus dial (not in MF mode) for creative effect... I'm guessing that the soft release button acted as a lever in the wrong direction while spinning the camera.

This is one of the very last photos I took before I noticed the issue.
