S2 shutter doesn't always open

[SS06]

Help! Recently when I turn on my S2 the shutter doesn't always open, but sometimes it does. Sometimes it'll take 1 picture and then the shutter won't reopen. We reset to factory default and still have the problem. Is this a repair problem or a stupid user problem?

Sounds like a repair problem. Try pulling the batteries out and leaving them out for a while and see if that clears things up, but I suspect you'll need to send it in for repair.

I guess it can also be because of fine dust lodged in the shutter opening mechanism...maybe fine sand or something?
