Re: camera won't recognize my 11-22mm.

Thanks for all the advice.  I've checked the more obvious things such as lens cap, etc.  I've cleaned the contacts on the lens.  I haven't done a hard reset yet.  As I have played with it I have noticed that with the camera turned on and showing a dark gray screen, if I begin to take the lens off-say about 1/4 inch turn-I now have an image showing on the lcd.  However it won't focus or do anything else.  It's frozen.  If I turn the lens to fully mount on the camera, the image disappears.  Manual focus or autofocus does not have an impact.

I then put the 22mm on the camera and everything worked perfectly.  So I'm pretty sure that the 11-22mm is the problem.

Please feel free to make further suggestions.  I guess I'm have to do the reset but, of course, hate to lose my settings.
