Occasionally my Nikon 750 will stick. I shoot and the camera “sticks” pressing the shutter again everything is fine. Have other Hoggers had this happen?

Any chance you are in Mirror Lock Up mode? Mup on the left upper rotary dial. Rotate back to S for ordinary action.

Similar feel if in time mode for shuter. Look for -- instead of usual shutter speed when in M manual mode. Tap shutter once to start, tap again to close. To get out, just roll to a "real" shutter speed or switch out of M.

Yes, not too often, but yes.

My D850 does that sometimes. Especially after using Continuous High Speed exposure.

Didn't the 750 have a shutter recall? Maybe that could be something to research.

No problems after 4.5 years. Agree with the Mup suggestion, or left on self-timer mode.

So far, 3 years in, no.

I had it happen to mine on rare occasion. I would turn it off and turn it back on after a few seconds and it would be fine. I sent mine in for repair on the shutter problem. If I remember correctly, the 2 issues were not associated but I'm not positive on that last statement. I know the camera would freeze ONLY when I was in manual mode and in one particular shutter and aperture setting. It would never happen unless I used a specific camera setting. After it was repaired, it never froze but I admit I sold the camera a few months after it was returned to me. It was working perfectly after being repaired though and it was done under warranty from the known issue. Nikon at one time listed all the serial numbers of the cameras affected with the shutter problem. Not all had the shutter issue.

The buffer in the 750 is slow...If I shoot too many too fast or a slow memory card...The camera will hesitate till the internal buffer catches up.

I have 2 D750's for about 5 years. This happened to me once when somehow I had set mirror lockup. I was momentarily dazed and confused beyond normal. Another post suggests the same;

I never had that happen but mine would occasionally shoot twice with one press of the shutter in single release mode.

Just a thought about the issue you describe, perhaps the shutter button is wearing out and not functioning quite properly, perhaps not re-opening the circuit.

Has it always done this or is it a new phenomena?

When you press the 2nd time does the shutter release again?

Yes, but only when I am shooting time lapses. The camera would stop shooting and display the "ERR" message on the top LCD. Pressing the shutter button would clear the error and the camera would then be fine. I first thought the problem was using the internal intervalometer, got the same error when using an external intervalometer.

Is the shutter release set for focus or release priority? If it’s set for focus it will hang if focus has t locked on.

Yes, I have the same thing happen to me often. It only happens on the first shot after power on, but it's getting pretty consistent. No Mup, no self timer.
