Which lens? All the time, or just once and a while?

i'm going to take a wild guess and say it's the sigma..

error 99 with one lens usually results when that lens has
a: dirty contacts
b:sticky/broken aperture
c: water damage


I don't hate macs or OSX, I hate people and statements that portray them as better than anything else. Macs are A solution, not THE solution. Get a good desktop i7 with Windows 7 and come tell me that sucks for photo or video editing.

I had a similar problem with a sticky aperture on a Tokina 24-200. Use your DOF button while looking into the lens to see if it seems to be consitantly opening and closing the aperture.
