zenzanon-s 50 shutter problem

<p>Hello to All</p>

<p>I have bronica sq-a cds mf finder and zenzanon-s 50mm<br>

the lens perfectly works with the body, all shutter speeds are correct, but when I attach the finder lens becomes inoperative... from 10 shots 9 will be 1\500 and 1 correct selected on the finder.<br>

I've tested 3 other lenses (150-ps, 80-ps, 110-ps macro 1:1) the all work wit the finder correct<br>

this lens also works great on my friends sq-a body, but doesn't work with his AE finder.</p>

<p>could you tell me what is the problem with the lens?</p>

<p>Taras, have you changed the battery in the camera body? The camera will revert to a 500th of a second if the battery is exhausted - or close to the end of its life. The AE finder draws its power from the camera body, so you need to make sure you have a good battery before blaming the lens.</p>

<p>but i tested the same lens on the two bodies with different batteries and finders... my buttery was fresh (GP) and other lenses performed well...</p>

<p>Taras, I can only assume you have a faulty lens in that case. As a final check, I would suggest cleaning the gold contacts on the rear of the lens. Don't use anything abrasive though - something like a pencil eraser would be okay.</p>
