D60 flash-shutter syncronization problem


Recommended Posts

I was shooting fireworks photos and then some other low-light stuff

and got D60's catchall Error 99. Continued t get it with both Sigma

and Canon lenses. Turning the camera off and on, removing the main

battery and putting it back in did no good. I reloaded the firmware,

which cleared the error message. Everthing works fine now -- except

the shutter and the flash are out of synchronization. I tried a

Canon Spedlite 380 EX and it will not synch with it either. Flash

fires fine and the shutter works fine -- they are just out of synch.

Anyone have a way to get them back in synch? Or is my shutter

mechanism going?

I tried it with first curtain sync and second curtain sync and also restting all custom functions to default. Tried different ISO speeds. Shutter and metering still work fine without the flash. Flash only comes up when I hit the button. Had asmilar problem on a D30 at work once -- (the D30's electron gremlins just moved on one day and the camera has worked fine ever since.) Thanks for the custom function suggestion though. But that didn't work either. I'm still looking for help.
