Default Problem solved. Lens contacts problem.

A couple of weeks ago I had some problems. More and more pictures were like this one. At first I thought there was a problem with my new BG-E2 grip, because the problem began to occur after I attached it. But it turns out, the lens contacts on my 70-300 IS USM were dirty. Some sort of invisible corrossion. Cleaned the contacts with alcohol. Problem gone.
Anyone with similar experience?
