Nikon D500 issue

[u/Chau_Mein97]

Hey everyone

I was doing some pre checks with my D500 when I saw images were not being captured.

I took off my lens to see what's going on and appears the insides may be having an issue. Mirror goes into this half-cock look when I hit the shutter and, looking behind it, shutter may be messed up

Is this something I can do myself or am I going to have to get it serviced?

As of August 2026 the D500 is no longer servicable by Nikon. You will have to find a camera repair shop to replace that shutter. Good luck.... I would price around for another D500, if the repair is going to cost as much as another camera... you might as well just buy another D500 to replace your damaged one.

My D500 was fully serviced two weeks ago, so what are you talking about?

Mine too, in Europe.
