What brand of
lens?
I had a Sigma lens that worked
fine
for over a year with my 10d
and
then decided not to talk with the camera
anymore. Kept giving the error
99.
I gave it to a
friend.
He sent it to Sigma and for about
$10.00
they did something so it would talk to
his
Canon Rebel.

Subject: good lens gone bad?
I
have a dedicated 5D and lens in my studio. It never leaves there and isn't
used by anyone else. Today
when I used the camera for a session it was acting all funky, had a heck of a
time making focus and was kind of grinding around as if I were manually
focusing with the lens set in autofocus mode. I removed the lens, put it on my
5DM2, it behaved the same way and the camera gave me an error saying the
contacts needed cleaning. I cleaned them but the problem persists. Can a lens
or lens contacts go bad? It hasn't been dropped or used outside the studio
ever. Actually, it's never off the studio body. Any ideas what in the world is
going on here? Lea
babies. they're what i do.
