Bought the XC 13-33mm thinking it might be a useful small zoom for those times when I want to travel light but might want more than one focal length.
It shipped to Australia from Amazon Japan but unfortunately was DOA. Would not show anything other than F0 when connected and would not AF or MF despite showing the green box. Tried two different bodies and tried mounting it several times.
I know stuff happens but seriously Fuji? That's two out of two defects for my last two Fuji lens purchases.
A lot of times these products are not shipped by Fujifilm, they are shipped by an Amazon affiliate. Might want to try cleaning the contacts with isopropyl alcohol if you haven't already.
