I have had my EOS 6D Mark II for a little under two years now. It is (or was) in great condition. Over the summer, I noticed an issue where it just wouldn't turn on. I purchased new batteries, new memory cards, new everything based on a few articles I read, and eventually it turned on. At that point, I thought it may have been a battery issue. Fast forward to now, and I have to spend about 25-30 minutes just trying to turn the camera on. I have to repeatedly re-insert both the battery and memory card, and just sit there hoping it will finally turn on. Once it does turn on, it's usually fine for a few hours. But after a certain window of time has passed, we're right back to square one. I cannot keep having this risk when I am heading to a photoshoot and it's extremely frustrating to deal with.
Has anyone else had this issue before, and/or have any recommendations that won't require me to pay an arm and a leg for fixing or replacement?
