I have been very happy with my g2 and 45mm combination up until today. I have done absolutely nothing but baby this camera and now it is having a problem locking focus. The camera recognizes how far away the subject is, the lens adjusts to that length, but it then retracts back to its starting position. In other words, the square dot in the viewfinder is placed on the proper distance, but it wont let me take a picture because the lens is not locked. One time out of frustration i tugged on the hood with minimal pressure and it started working again. However, after turning the camera on and off again the problem returned. I am trying not to touch it until i have some idea of what is causing this. I have no other lenses to test whether this is a lens issue or a camera issue, but im fairly positive it is the lens. Next week I will be visiting a friend of mine and I will be able to use one of his lenses as well as put my lens on his camera. If anyone has any suggestions, please send them my way as i am more frustrated than you can believe.
Thanks in advance.
