Sorry for the very late reply. Yup i got mine fixed with the local repair shop. They say this was an issue the with Sony A7II when passed the shutter count. Seen this issue also with my friend the same as mine. Both our units are now now functioning well and hopefully in the years to come.

I got mine fixed for USD65

Hope this helps :)

We just did this repair here at our shop. Here's the part on AliExpress for anyone wanting it: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/325680230...

We have fixed the button issues, and all functions seem normal. We're proceeding with extensive QI at the moment before letting the customer know they're all set.

No one else in our area appeared willing to do the repair. Sony wanted $400 just to take in the camera, so we gave it a shot. It was a pain, but hopefully, it's all worth it.

I too have the same problem with the Sony A7R II... I wish this was an easy fix, looks like I'm going to look for a repair shop.
