Hi guys,

1.The body cant recognize the kit lens.
2.LCD screen blank.
3.Half press shutter no effect at all.
4.Upon turning on the camera, the lens keep focusing and cant goes back to the original position after turn off

May I know what's wrong?
Is there any other way to fix this.

flex cable in lens.
its a common problem on modern lenses after a few years of usage.
extending and retracting the lens over and over will cause the flex cable to bend in and out and finally break.
only way to diagnose it is by trying other lens as another forumer mentioned.
last time i ask, its not worth to fix it. just buy a new one.

Hi, I went to a shop. tested the lens & camera.
My camera body is fine. Just the lens no longer usable.
I was told that to fix the lens costs about >RM1,000.

Any recommendation of lens to replace my kit lens?
I only do general shooting. Travel, group photos etc etc..

Cheap kit lens 12-32mm and 35-100mm, both are very compact, or if you looking for only one lens to cover wide variety of focal length, 14-140mm is available too.

Thanks..

i joined the Olympus Photowalk in Putrajaya on July 8th, and got myself the 12-40mm last week. i traded in my 17mm f1.8, and i'm super satisfied with my new lens.

anyone joining the workshop/Photowalk on the 29th and 30th?

Where did you get your 12-40mm?
How much?
