Had two examples of this lens, neither worked with my Eos 20d. So soft that even the crappy little kit lens blew them into the weeds when I tested them on newsprint - unusably so. After reading the reviews on here I was shocked, but the guys I bought it from said they were aware with issues with lots of sigma lenses on the 20d - I sent back a 24-70 which was just as soft. Nice build quality but if it isn't going to work with THE most popular prosumer digital camera out there - what's the point? And why market it as being compatible?
Putting my money in L glass from now on. Liked the sigma's solid feel, but wouldn't trust one as far as I could throw it after my recent experience.
