Hello

using it with the EPL1 was problem free, but with the EPL5, there are time when the lens is stuck, maybe i am not using the right English, but that how it is , it will not respond neither with the AF nor with MF, i had to take the battery out, sometimes i have to remount it again, and in other times i have to leave it for a while.

i am really frustrated, nothing like this when using other Olympus m4/3 lens, specifically the 12-50mm macro lens, the 14-150mm, and the 45mm.

any idea on what i have to do.

thought of getting the new Olympus 75-300mm when it is released, but what if the problem is form the camera.
 
One important thing to try: clean the contacts both on the lens and on the camera body. Possibly use a pencil eraser and follow by clean Kleenex.
