Out of nowhere my FS5 mark2 started messing around this morning on a shoot when using S&Q 100fps (pal) continuous slomo. The problem is the camera switches off and restarts itself when I press the S&Q button or a few seconds after pressing record. The screen would go blank for a few seconds as the camera restarts. This happened at least a dozen times.
During one take the camera completely froze just after pressing record - again in S&Q 100fps - I had to remove the battery to get it working again.
The issue happened using the supplied Sony battery and a new Swit battery and San Disk Extreme 64gb and Transcend 64gb SD cards. It hasn't happen before in the 2 months since purchase.
I have since performed a factory reset on the camera and after testing the problem seems to have disappeared thankfully.
Has anyone had this issue? Firmware is 1.00 - I think this is the most recent for the mark 2.
