8lias, try not tuning the camera off but rather set the sleep time to 1 min. I rarely turn mine off except when changing lens.

So good luck, and happy snapping. Send it in if you have doubts. Sigma service is superb so why even worry about this stuff. I sent mine to them even before I'd hardly used it to have them check it met all specifications. Never even had a thought about focus issues since. https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1203740

It's small and sharp throughout the range. There are some bad copys around though so try one on YOUR body first. That goes for both lenses.

This only happened to me when I went to chicago and wanted building pictures. My copy has no focusing issues and is really sharp. My friend bought one along with his 20D and he also has no problems. One AWESOME lens for the price. How ironic, I'm from chicago and I plan on shooting buildings and what not. Nick Robinson
