A+plus Member  61 posts Joined Apr 2010 More info | I bought mine 2 weeks ago from the B&H superstore. I'm surprised they're out of stock. I did however get the new finish. From what I've read, I haven't heard anyone with the new finish having AF issues, so if possible, try to get one with the new finish when they have 'em re-upped. Goodluck! 7D // 11-16 2.8 // 30 1.4 // 135L

I sent a RMA for a replacement. Thinking I should just try to get my money back and order where the new ones are shipping. :/

So am I correctly interpreting that the line of thinking in this thread is that the new finish solved any focus issues? R6 | R7 | 15-85is | Rokinon 14 2.8 | RF 16 2.8 | 16-35 F4is L | RF 24-105 F4is L | RF 70-200 F4is L | 100-400 II L | Σ150-600 C | 1.4X III | 2X III | 430ex |
