I simply happen to have this camera, and to have encountered the same issues as the original poster as well as a workaround if they still wish to use the lense which is causing the error.As Demetrius helpfully added this is indeed a lense compatibili...
I just encountered this issue too, and yeah this 100% seems to be it. Best workaround I've found is just *slightly* turning the lense in the mount so the electrical contacts don't touch and then the camera works perfectly with manual focusing!
