Yup I've discuss with MM about the 100-400 F4L IS too but if I sell my lens now I probably be at a loss. Bought $1636 less than month i if u let go $1300 sure got people make if ex. Mist probably like what MM said to me. Understand the lens and my body for the time being when got extra $$$ then upgrade. Btw dies lens filter size big small make any different? Is it the bigger the better light going into the lens? Keke.

I read some of your thread before u decide to buy this sigma 150-500mm I thought u bought it from ddelectronics at 1.3k plus only. As my I sold for 1k to a nice guy only a 2months old lens. So far no problems with the lens it's very sharp even 400 - 500m away. But sometimes when I'm using handheld most of pics were blurred due to handshake but using monopod will solve the problem.

Hi zeunice, actually i've placed my order with ddelectronic.com, they promised me the stock will arrived in a week, somehow the they pm me it's may take up to 2 weeks for the stock to arrive. Hence i went to SLR at funan mall to got mine from them as it's have 2 years local and 1 year international warranty. I believed after they replaced the parts, they may not have calibrate the lens. I tried so many times with tripod regardless near or far big object or small object all turned out soft. :cry:

Hi sorry for not returning here for quite a while. Glad that Sigma has solved your focus issue. I have played with my lens for a bit more and begining to like it more as well , It's great value for $$$. I haven't upload those but here is some of the shots I made during the 1st test run
