I love my Samsung NX 500 + Rokinon 12mm lens combo, but lately when I use the lens I get repeated "Lens Attached" then "Lens Detached" messages. Removing and re-attaching the lens doesn't seem to help much.

Any ideas?

I had a similar problem with a lens adapter. See the pictures below. The flange needed to be bent a little to become flush with the edge of the adapter. The red arrows show where. There is a pin on the camera mount that was not being depressed fully until I bent the flange.
