A shot from my newly tweaked misfocusing Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.5.

Wasn't quite the bargain I had hoped for (still much less than new) but now it's fixed....awesome.

I got that lens back when I bought my XTi, and I have used it on my 40D as well. I personally very much like this lens. Mine is very sharp as well.

Out of all the mistakes Ive made, selling my Sigma 17-70 is at the top of the list. This lens is fantastic.
