Hi Daniel!
We've just got back from Hornby Island, where my=20
camera reported the dreaded "ERROR 01 -=20
Communications error between camera & lens" just once.
For your information, the entire camera locks up,=20
when this happens, even with the=20
adapter. However, with mine (a 30D) I have only=20
to slightly loosen the lens and relock it in=20
position to temporarily cure the fault. No need to remove the battery!
I have listened to all the advice given and had=20
taken a pencil eraser (very soft) with me, but=20
did not need to use it. The problem with mine=20
appears to be some tarnish on the copper contacts=20
of the adapter's circuit board. I will try=20
cleaning them again, and will also check=20
carefully, to see if the alignment is out, as it=20
was on yours. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks, Daniel! I hope we will hear your "voice", here, more often! :-)
