    A6000 randomly shuts down

    As per title really. Has anybody had similar issues? Happened after focusing and shutter release.

    Thanks Dave

    No I have not had this happen to me ever. The only thing I think of is the battery or the batter connector contacts may have something on them? Not really sure, sorry...
