I have a 24-105 Art lens on the way and if the focus is off a bit can I micro adjust on my MkIV or is the dock the way to go. Anyone use this lens and what are your thoughts.

you can micro adjust it at the body, and you can also tune it with the dock

If you plan on getting lots of dock-compatible Sigma lenses, I'd go with the dock - on some lenses, there's a lot of things you can tweak

Thanks for the input! I micro adjusted at 30mm and 100m and it only needed small adjustments. After shooting a few things around the inside of the house I'll say it's very sharp and has not missed focus once in low light. My only other Art lens was the 24mm and I was quite happy with that. This 24-105 is in like new condition and bought new last year and the best part was I got it at a great price. BTW, I MA with the Lenscal.
