Unhappy Err99 - Camera Broken!!

Alright chaps, bit of a bad day yesterday

I was out on a run out with the car club lads, got my camera out and attached the 50mm prime ready for some crystal clear shots of the scenery, the cars and the action. I focused, pushed the button and..........................


Nothing


The camera made a funny whining noise and flashed up with the Err99 message on the display and upon further inspection, when you attempt to take a shot, the mirror flips up as normal, but then gets stuck in the up position and takes a hell of a long time to come down unless the power is shut off...it doesnt even look like the censor is opening!!

Im fairly cheesed off as the camera is rated for 100,000 actuations and has only gone past 10,000. I dont have a great deal of money and now this!!!!!!

What is the problem likely to be?

What places local to the Leeds area would be able to fix it?

Whats the likely cost?

Yours in a seriously foul mood

Scott
