Nah, the only one on these forums that I'd sell it to is my good buddy Ed Rader. I wouldn't feel the least bit guilty about that. It was already said, but I hope there's no inherent focusing issues after calibration.. I wish I was one of the lucky ones who had a proper 30  The only issues I've had with gear are my 50mm and my pop-up flash on my 30D. Sometimes it pops up, sometimes it doesn't. I'm just a couple of months out of my warranty, but emailed Canon about it in late Nov or Dec. Not sure if they'd fix it for free at this point.

It's not as if the Sigma Macro Primes are any cheaper then the Canon equivalents, 100mm/2.8 for example. Not sure what the exact point of this lens is. It's not as if the Canon version is aweful, it's one of the sharpest spoons in the drawer with FTM for $300-ish. The only advantage I see for this lens is hood (shade) in the box. one good thing about this lens is it is FF. if the IQ is stellar and it doesn't mis-focus is great it could compete with canon's defective 50L 1.2. http://instagram.com/edraderphotography/

I bet it comes in just about the same or a bit more than the 30mm. It's not as if the Sigma Macro Primes are any cheaper then the Canon equivalents, 100mm/2.8 for example. Well, the Sigma is cheaper, but it's not as capable, either (no HSM or internal focus). Not sure what the exact point of this lens is. It's not as if the Canon version is aweful, it's one of the sharpest spoons in the drawer with FTM for $300-ish. Hey, you're right! I happen to have one for sale. I was saving it for a good buddy, but you can have it if you want it! The only advantage I see for this lens is hood (shade) in the box. I guarantee you, this Sigma will be substantially better built than the EF 50mm f/1.4. "Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.
