OMD EM-1 issues, timely help appreciated!

Hi all,

I am relatively new to shooting oly over my old canon (boy do I miss it).

I am having trouble with my first model omd em1, the viewfinder goes back and autofocus doesn't work at seemingly random times (though it appears to be getting worse).

Has anyone else had this issue or found a remedy? It was happening more when I was using C-AF, so I switched to single shot, but I am still having issues periodically. This morning I had the issue prop up even when I tried shooting in Manual focus.

If I put the camera in MF I can fire off a couple shots and usually the viewfinder/AF eventually works again but frequently only for one more shot before the issue props up again.

Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED as I am in ALASKA right now and have limited access to my computer/internet in between hikes, etc.

Thanks so much.
