@Khang1611 that’s wonderful. I have abandoned this project a few years ago after I couldn’t fix the lens. I don’t even know where the lens is now.

 

I’m glad you were able to fix yours.

 

Thanks for sharing your solution 

if u found the lens again u should definitely try it out !! Also to be able to reach the aperture cable the lens group need to get a deep disassemble too ( u can deep clean the dust on both front and back elements by that). The dust mostly get into the lens by the tiny gap between aperture parts and front and back elements.

This is where the cable being folded roughly ( sorry I forgot to take pictures when I reassemble it). I recommend using some alcohol for disassemble cause they have glue at some parts. And that’s it, I think that’s thee problem cause we concentrate on the ic chip too much, my dad said that those parts on the main board are rarely break. And this cable are the electric parts that being move the most and in a roughly way. 
i hope my comment will help u guys to fix this lens.

Thank you. I thought it was the focus motor problem. My lens moves after turning on, then gets stuck. Then, an error message appears asking me to turn off and on the camera.

I have had the same problem mentioned by many. A few years of good service. Mostly with X-T3,

X-T30. Now I get the prompt to turn off and on. Cleaned contacts and at first it worked but not

after a few uses. It is a nice pancake lens and that is why I think it is used mainly. Thinking of

buying the TTArtisan, which is cheap but not sure it is that great. Has anyone tried it? Contact

with Fujifilm repair has been hard in New Jersey. On an X-T50, one has a nice combination for street

photography (if it worked!).

    • OK, they aren't real.  It's a shark exhibit at my local museum.   Very dark in there—I had to rate the ISO at 6400 and 8000. GFX100RF.

    • Well thank you all for you reactions, I haven´t found a lot of options to buy a used Mark I and the Mark II seemed expensive even though I´m sure its a very good lense. So I ended up getting the Sigma 17-40 which I have found for a reasonable deal and so far I am very very happy with it. Weight is good, size is definitely ok for me and I love the internal zoom and weather resistance. The sharpness is very good for my taste and the autofocus works awesomely fast for me. Plus the 1.8 is great to have, I really like that option and shoot wide open in a lot of instances.   So in combination with my 50-140 I have no a combination of lenses for concert photography that makes me very very happy currently.    So thats my update, not sure if its of any interest to anyone but I thought since I opened that thread I wanted to give it its due diligence.
    • Big congratulations! I think the XT-5 is a fine camera you can really sink your teeth into. I bought one recently. And I retired a couple years ago, revitalizing an old photography hobby like you. You have a great plan taking shape. It's amazing how much they packed into this camera, and it's amazing how many of the mundane challenges of photography years ago have been fixed or improved. I also bought "The Complete Guide to Fujifilm's X-T5 B&W Edition" and think it's a fantastic book, way way better than a few other books I tried. It's a big paperback and the author also lets you download a PDF version which is great for searching. I have had a blast with it. Happy hunting!!
