D750 Shutter or Mirror Error

Check your insurance policy and any trip insurance you may have, including insurance provided by your credit card company if you charged the trip. It might be covered.

Sure it's had a mighty wallop, but seeing as the body mount is still attached to the lens, it's the screws pulling out of the plastic body that seem to have taken a lot of the energy.

 

I can't see much lens damage, maybe the aperture lever is a bit bent and the comms, pins look a bit scuffed, but the glass looks OK. Of course they could be badly misaligned now, but certainly worth a try.

 

If you can separate the 2 'components' I wouldn't be surprised if the lens is OK. It's a big pro-weight lens designed for some (!) abuse, but obviously not quite this much!

 

A new lens mount is usually a pretty cheap repair.

 

The body is dead. RIP.

Ouch. One aside: if the body mount is stuck on the lens mount, that may be a pain to fix. Generally the lens mount unscrews from the body end, so if there's something over the screws, that could be nasty. However, it's been worse when the lens is stuck on a body that people want to preserve; under the circumstances, it may just grind off even if it's stuck!

 

I've done it too and been lucky, but it's really wise not to have the lens on the body when it's in transit (despite sometime images on camera bag web sites) for this reason, especially with a lens the size of a 24-70. Very instructive images.

 

Enjoy your replacement body!

Believe me, I will always unmount from now on!

That is a good point. When you travel (e.g. by plane or long-distance driving), you are always better off keeping the cameras and lenses separate.

Feel free to use those damage pics as a warning.
