I tried a 18-55 DX and a 55-200mm DX lenses on my D70 (borrowed from my friend who bought a D50 kit) and they don't seem to work properly on my camera, anyone tried these lens on their D70's? The lenses were well mounted without a doubt, but after the click I had to twist the lens very slightly to a certain point for it to work, all it needed was for me to twist the zoom a little harder to stop working again, both the focus and the metering.
This is an obvious bad contact but why would it happen? I don't have any other DX or AF-S lens to try on, but I was considering buying a couple of AF-S lenses and now I'm affraid of buying them. Any ideas to what's happening?
Make sure the electrical contacts on the camera as well as the lenses are not dirty. A Q tip with a drop of alcohol (or Sensor Clean solution) should work.
