Leica 200mm 2.8

[yegnal]

Anyone else have the issue of the lens losing the connection to the camera while shooting with it on the G9 ??

I can hear and feel the lens reset while twisting and turning trying to get shots of birds in flight. It sounds like and appears to be the auto focus motor.

I don't have any issues with any other lenses, only the Leica when it's attached to the 1.4 TC..

If it only happens with the tc than I would think it’s the tc and the lens.

If this sounds vaguely familiar, this is the same lens and TC complained about in another thread:

Gee, perhaps the lens (and/or the TC) is faulty. Ya think?!?

two years in use with or without tc no problems
