Default S3 should have been good news

Last week wasn't my best. Death in the family, got rear-ended and wrote off my car and I bought a "excellent condition" S3 on Ebay. Camera looks great, but when powered on, the viewfinder goes dark on the first shot. Pressing the shutter again clears it and it seems to work fine. Anyone else have this issue? When it happened on my S2, it was usually the batteries, but I tried it with the AC adapter and it still does it.

I bought the S3 to replace my D100-- The mirror flopped up and it quit. $510 to repair it. So I thought I would buy the S3--love the DR.

Attached is last summer's S2 shot. Love the green foilage
