Is there anyone who has had a sticky switch on their Nikon D7000? It is requires a bit of force to turn it on. Any ideas as to how I could loosen it up? I hope I don't have to send it to Rick for repair.
Thanks everybody,

It's out of warranty, so that's a consideration.
(Not a good idea - If it were mine, I would turn it upside down and shoot a very small amount of - something - between the body and the switch (silicone, WD-40?).
There could be some material in that little joint. If that's not the problem, then the sticking is taking place inside the camera, and someone will have to take it apart.
Don't be tempted to move it back and forth very fast to loosen it.
EDIT: An idea - turn it on and leave it on. The camera goes to sleep after a minute or two. Of course removing lenses and SD cards would be a consideration. You could remove the battery before doing those things.
