"Communications between the camera and lens is faulty. Clean the lens contacts"
Common fault apparently but a first for me and the timing could hardly have been worse as I'm off to Kozfest tomorrow morning which is one of my big photography outings of the year.
I've identified it as being the lens at fault and, no, cleaning the contacts didn't cure it. My 16-35 works on the 5D3 but the 24-105 doesn't work on the 7D. This means I'm left with a 7D/15-85 combo which is not great in the low lighting I can expect and the 5D3/16-35 is hardly ideal for stage and 'street' type photography.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
John
