Hi Rick -
Does the lens do this on multiple bodies? You might want to verify that
it is the lens and not the camera. My venerable Pz-1p developed the same
problem with some lenses. It appears that the shaft from the body is not
linking up to the lens right. It's only a couple of lenses and they work
well on other bodies, but consistently falter on the Pz-1p (though like
in your case, re-mounting the lens or shaking it gets things working
again, for a while.)
Good luck with the home renovations - we replaced all of our galvanized
plumbing and Knob and tube wiring last year. Lots of dust, noise and
disruption.

So here I am to draw on the group's collective experience:
My beloved DA 16-45 is having autofocus problems. It often just goes
click-click-click and doesn't focus. Sometimes a bit of shaking gets
it working again for a frame or three.
Where should I send it for repair? Precision? KEH? Somewhere else?
Cheers,
Rick
