Guy,Thanks Victor I'm going to test it one more time on a tripod to be sure I am lined up okay and see what happens. This could be my whole AF issue too. Regardless of this copy I want this lens though. I have a Sigma repair shop in my area so I will bring it down there this week and see what they can do.
Tim,Just so's you know Guy, Lloyd Chambers' copy has a slight decentering too... It may be that the design is prone to it.
Guy,Called Sigma repair today here in Phoenix and I can walk in with it, so its going in the morning . Keep everyone updated but once fixed this thing just may rock.
Almost did but after a few phone conversations with them, I opted out. I've know quite a few personally who have used their service for both camera and lenses (though not a Sigma). There is another recent thread here on Getdpi that briefly mentions experiences some had with them on the phone and getting specific answers. I don't know which is worse, dealing with automated call centers using a computer for interaction or speaking directly with C.R.I.S phone receptionsits and not getting beyond standard talking points.Yes it is. Have you used them for service.
Guy, with the potential of the Sigma 35mm f1.4, I too hope you get it all straightened out.Once I get mine straightened out it maybe better than my Zeiss 35mm F2. I like this Sigma and its look so far . Just get it straightened out and I will be a happy camper. If not Ill go back to the Zeiss
:thumbdown:I just got my replacement Siggy 35 1.4 and will head out to shoot it soon in order to see if it's sharper across the frame but the first problem is AFFT: my previous copy required a +18 and this one looks like it needs a +22 to 24 :-(
