Photography Asked by Kez on February 25, 2021
I have the Canon 50mm f1.4 which had the common focus issue due to deformed inner focus ring.
I have straightened the ring and the lens now had full range of manual focus, but Autofocus cannot find a happy spot, but instead moves back and forth around the correct position a coupled of times and gives up with the red focus square.
I have inspected the autofocus brush and all 3 prongs are making good contact.
Professional service is not available where I live and sending overseas with combined postage approaches the cost of a new lens.
Is the motor assembly responsible for this kind of fault? Or the electronics PCB?
Ordering replacemtent parts seems my only realistic option.
If you've touched the focus position sensor brushes with your bare fingers you're very likely going to need to replace them. Please remember to wear gloves and grounding straps when handling them.
