GF-2 problem

So I've had my GF-2 for a little under a year and have been very happy with it. After a couple of months it started having an issue where it takes a series of completely black images. It doesn't seem to matter what lens I use or what settings I use. The only thing that seems to work sometimes is to hold down the shutter release button and take a large number if pictures in burst mode, until my camera "snaps out of it." Recently when I'm shooting this seems to happen about every five minutes.

I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem, or if anyone had any suggestions on what I could do to fix this issue. It's been really frustrating, causing me to miss a lot of photo opportunities.

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
