It seems like it is upset from the day I got 6D :(

Last couple of days it is start giving me error as "Err 01 contacts between lens and camera are bad, please clean the contact". I tried cleaning using the pencil eraser on both Lens and body and still giving me error. I tried auto mode and it seems working fine in there but when I move to any other mode like P, T, A, or M, it gives me error.

any suggestion?

Send the 6D back so that your 50D isn't upset anymore :)

Seriously I've never had anything like this happen, but I'm sure someone will be able to help you.

Yaa that is definitely an option to return 6D!

I read and it says this is because of issue with lens. It seems like the lens when keeping at the zoom between 17 to 24 it gives error. I tried keeping it at 17 and did get error and when I keep it over 50 then it works fine. the solutions is to replace one of the strip in the lens. will check further to see if more information is available.

The ef-s 17-85 has a known issue with the ribbon cord being stretched on zooming its a fixed price fix it was £75 for my one here two years ago, speak to canon or your local canon centre
