the lens
contacts are dirty - get a pencil with an eraser on the end, just
a regular old pencil with a red rubber eraser. Detach the lens from the
camera, hold it so that the lens’ gold contacts are pointing down and
lightly erase their exposed surface, cleaning them of any hand oil that
might have gotten on them.
Do the same thing with the gold contacts inside the camera body.
This is a bit harder but it’s doable: just hold camera so lens opening
points down so no gunk falls in. Erase lightly. I've used a lens cloth and
dabbed at the contacts rather than blow them so as not to blow the
erasings inside the camera.
Worked for me... Let me know how it goes...
