Possible. Because sometimes i twist Mode dial button. But difference is that my lens Image Stabilizer was operating perfectly. Just autofocus didn't operate.

I can count lens attaching/detaching to camera times. And that number is between 10 to max 20 times per 2,5 years. I think it is really low possibility to damage pins or lens locking mechanism.

I checked 3 or more times. Tried to switch to MF and again to AF. Result was the same. I recognize the IS sound. I switched off my IS and then tried to listen. When i was pressing the shutter button, i heard very quiet sound, something like high frequency. The sound appeared exact time, when i was pressing the shutter button, but no AF lens moving sound.

Thanks jrw, i will observe my lens/camera locking mechanism.
