I have a Sony 16500 with a Sony Lens attached and the Focus Motor setup with teh Ronin-SC. I cannot get the Focus motor to calibrate or communicate and have tried various things. I have doublechecked the configuration of cables and the switch but still it fails. I have added a video link here and would appreciate any help.

OK I got the email from them and the return label. I handed over the return to UPS today. Is it possible to get a tracking number of the replacement unit? How do I follow up on this ?

Did you try to disconnect the USB from the camera? Maybe with the camera connected the focus wheel just controls zoom and doesn't recognize the focus motor ...

Hi, Does your Sony 16500 have an option in the camera menus to change an option called 'Release w/o lens' Disable / Enable? I've had an issue with the motor focus wheel disconnecting. I had a Sony A7S ii, Samyang 35mm lens attached. With the function turned off. I get an error to check the lens attachment. if the lens is not supported. But with the function enabled. The lens works with the camera. Just a thought.
