Images from Sigma 35mm f1.4 dg


Does anyone encounter any issue with the lens having front focus when using the outer AF points? My copy when used with the center AF point is tack sharp but once I shift the AF point off center, the front focus is so bad at every other AF points that I need to MA it to +20 and turn MA off when shooting at center AF point again. Went to Sigma service centre today and the technician acknowledged the problem after several testing at several F stop. Camera used is Canon1DX.

Sigma service centre has got this fixed for me! All AF points now are working fine with the lens! Thank you specially to the service technician for all his assistance and great service! This lens now is a killer! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 

Anyone know of any shop that has this lens in stock for the Nikon mount? Thanks in advance!
 

Try Parisilk Hollabd Village. They had one 2 wks ago
 

Just got mine from MS color last week.
 

To those who just recently bought this piece of lens, how much is the current price nowadays?

For calibration to be meaningful, I think you will need to also bring the camera you intend to use as well.

Iirc, Calibration is done on the lens but specific to the camera.

Your case is not unique. I used to have this lens too. I had it paired with my former 1DX and experienced the same issue. Only the center af was spot on and very sharp. Anything other than that will cause the lens to either front or back focus. Strange though you mentioned that Sigma was unable to do anything about it. I had a technician assisting me with the calibration for a few days and it went well. You can see my post about it here.
