Subject: AF not working on my K mount lens (on my Samsung GX-10)




As  I understand it, with my rather limited knowledge; which is
basically some very quick learning from various web sites, the lens
and the camera exchange information via the contacts on the mount.

Could any/some of these contacts be ¨messed¨ in some way so as to be
conveying incorrect information and short of trying to get Samsung
to fix this is there anything I can do/try to see if I can correct
the problem (without invalidating any warranty). I´m figurin gI´m
going to have a tough time explaining this to a help desk so just
wanted to make sure by consulting those in the know.


I suppose a contact could be corroded, but given the age of these cameras, I 
suspect otherwise. You can clean the contacts with a new pencil eraser, be 
careful not to let anything get inside the camera.
You could also try removing and replacing the battery, and also updating the 
firmware.
After that, you are pretty much out of options, and need to go back to the 
store for help/ warranty.
