October 18, 20223 yr Hi guys, i found a problem with my A5100 and possible with lenses. I have been on trip with my camera and my lens SEL18200LE. But the autofocus started going badly, first in part of zoom area and than in the whole area. Also I cant manual focus and shot a picture. Soo I was thinking the lens focusmechanism is broken. But when I came home I try other my lenses, which were previesly working. And the results were confusing: SELP1650: seems working well SEL30M35: seems working well Sigma 30mm f/2,8 DN ART: looks like the same problem like SEL18200LE. Can't focus, can't take a picture and also my camera can't detect aperture number. Any idea before I try servis? Thanks guys

October 19, 20223 yr Author Thanks for reply. The contacts seem be clean and also I gently brushed them. Didn't help. I also take a time with observe the problem. It seems the camera actually can focus but very slowly. When the focus is locked the camera seemed to be going restart or when I press the shot button. After restart the camera have default settings. I dont know what is going with it. I have idea it also could be problem with battery, but unluicky I dont have spare. (My idea: This two setup of lenses and camera maight have hight volatge imput and it could couse a restart)
