Hi all, my EM5 mk1 shutter gets stuck frequently these days so I want to send it for a check or repair at the olympus service centre.

When I try to take a picture sometimes the shutter refuses to open so I need to take the battery out and on off repeatedly to get it unstuck. I tried long exposures as well which I read may help get it unstuck but after awhile it happens again. My shutter count is about 24000/100000

Does anyone know the price to service & also shutter replacement cost? Bought the camera in 2013..

Thank you

It's not as pricey as I thought it would be whew.. Were you able to have it done in 1 day or it had to be collected after a few days?

Thank you
