(both 7D and 60D) May 12, 2011 So while I was canon eos 450d error 99 shooting this past Saturday, I had this error:"Err 01 Communications between the camera and lens is faulty. Clean the lens contacts."pop canon eos 450d error 05 up on my camera.At the time, I had my Canon 17-55 lens on my 7D. I then tried the lens on my 60D. Same thing.I've done a little googleing... and many people have suggested trying canon eos 450d lenses to manually clean the lens contacts. However, the most recent post I found on this was a few years old. Can anyone give me feedback/tips/advice on trying this method?Or, is it better to send it to Canon (or a local camera shop) to have it repaired. How much would it cost to repair the lens?Thanks!

I have cleaned the contacts but still is happening. I think it could be due to moisture where you shoot. Turn it off, then try again. Sometimes it works for a number of shots, then is happening again.not sure if polishing the contact would be the permanent solution ... the contact could be oxidised by the water vapour perhaps ? just a guess though .sorry cannot help you more than this ...cheersjordy2324 wrote:So while I was shooting this past Saturday, I had this error:"Err 01 Communications between the camera and lens is faulty.

Clean the lens contacts". Cleaning the lens contacts didn't work on its own. But when I followed the steps I demonstrate in the video it began to function normally again.

explanation of the Err01 is "Communications between the camera and the lens is faulty. Clean the lens contact." Well, life can't be that simple can it? I'm sure there are http://kpixel.com/wp/2011/05/canon-eos-error-01-err01-the-worst-case-scenario/ cases where the lens contacts are indeed dirty enough to interfere with communication between the camera and the lens. There are lots of cleaning tips online including the ‘pencil eraser' method. If that worked http://www.canon.co.uk/support/consumer_products/product_ranges/cameras/eos/error_codes/ for you consider yourself lucky. Here is the dreaded Err01 message: No amount of cleaning, resetting and swearing was going to make the error go away on this Rebel XTi. I've also verified that canon eos it wasn't the lens, dirty contacts, or the firmware. So I decided to take a deeper look (literally) to see what is really wrong. It turns out that the internal connector pin that connects the lens contact pin assembly to the circuit board has burnt out! Yes, burnt. The connector was covered with green fungus-like powder and some gooey substance was underneath it. And there were black burn canon eos 450d marks on the flexible strip. Holy crap! how could have this happened? My two guesses are: A. There were excessive moisture/humidity build up along the contacts while the lens was being removed with the camera powered on. (very unlikely, but a theory nevertheless) B. The lens motor overloaded the camera. Perhaps, this poor XTi was trying to auto-focus a huge lens for prolonged period of time and/or there were constantly higher than normal resistance from the lens barrel from your hand being in the way, etc… (very likely, especially when using non-ultrasonic lnses). I carefully cleaned the connector with alcohol. But as you can see, few of the connectors are burnt out and has disappeared from the strip. It's obviously not going to work as is. But I've put the camera back together just to see if it behaves any different. Yep, just as expected - didn't work. The camera throws same error as before. Now, I either have to look for a donor Rebel XTi that has the pin connectors intact or the part itself. With some luck and careful soldering, I should be able to bring this poor EOS XTi back to life. Fingers crossed and eyes open on e
