D500 Freeze up

Several weeks ago I wrote in about my D500 that froze up twice while I was on a shoot. The fix was to pull the battery for a few seconds, put it back and keep going. Allen's Camera replaced the unit when I got home and all is well. Today I was noodling around on YouTube and found a fellow with the exact same problem and a number more had written in the comments. So I guess Nikon has a problem. Meanwhile, just pull the battery, put it back in and keep on shooting if you have the freeze up problem.

Guess what, such a freeze up can happen on other Nikons too. I had it happen on my two year old D7100 a few weeks ago. Same fix, pull the battery and put it back.

They "Just don't make 'em like they used to!" LOL couldn't resist. but thanks for the "fix" info.

Just in case my crappy old 610 should ever go haywire(but I doubt it.)
