K20D mushy shutter release

fccwpe · 09-17-2009, 06:48 AM

My K20d shutter release button seems to be getting mushy when I compare it to the less used grip shutter release. I have about 18000 actuations. Anyone else have this issue?

You got me to go check. Mine feel and sound the same to me. Over 20,000 clicks so far.

How do you check shutter actuations?

The problem with mine is that it's now getting sticky at times. I hold it half way down and it sticks for a bit, and may feel mushy. Is that what it feels like?
