Loose Body Mount

[mengsi1989]

Hi,

 

My X-T1 having problem on the body mount. Even the lens is properly latched, sometime it will lost contact and the camera reinitialised with the lens or sometime aperture become F0. Problem is serious with heavier lens such as 56mm F1.2 R and 50-140mm F2.8 R LM OIS.

 

Did any X-shooter having the same problem?

 

Any solution to solve the problem?

 

Thanks

I can't see any other "solution" than contacting Fuji for repairs. It shouldn't behave like that.

It seems like my X-Pro1 'suffers' from a looser mount compared to my X-T1, as I can rotate the lens a tiny amount when locked. I have never experienced any contact issues though.

Are you sure it's not the documented f/0 problem? In this problem the lenses stop focusing and the camera shows f/0. The camera will still take (unfocused) images. This error requires replacement of a cicuit board within the camera, and will be fixed under warranty. I strongly recommend sending the camera in for repair and not waiting.

The 55-200 is a tad loose on my X-T1.  I can just barely feel the lens move on the mount.  This is the second 55-200 this has happened to but I've learned to live with it.  However, it seems your issue requires a call to Fuji USA>

This is not the same issue - even the 50-140mm can be a little loose (twisting, not wobbling), as long as the contacts still touch it's fine.

I already send the camera to Fujifilm service center to fix it. They say is the first encounter for this kind of problem on X-T1. They replace the body mount FOC even though my camera's warranty period end and just charge me labour.
