Just over a year ago, I had my sensor replaced under the Olympus recall for bad Sony sensors. It showed the typical purple lines across the LCD indicating sensor failure.
All the work was done at no charge and the camera works fine. When it first came back, I noticed that I couldn't depress the shutter release...it seemed stuck. After applying some force, it freed up and worked pefectly, so I didn't think much of it.
Since then, whenever the camera is left idle for over an hour or so, the initial push on the shutter release is very, very stiff. Having the camera on or off makes no difference. After that first push, it's a smooth as can be. It's annoying, but doesn't really effect shooting at all.
Has anyone ever seen this before? It's a PITA, but I'm sure it's now too late to have it repaired as part of the original warranty work that seems to have caused the problem.
