Another test would be to remove the lens and see if the mirror flips up when  you make an exposure.  You should probably do this in manual mode in case the camera doesn't want to expose without a lens in any of the program modes.  If the mirror won't flip up, the imaging chip will not be exposed to light and the pictures would turn out black.
