I don\'t get it - what\'s the point of this thread, from the OP\'s perspective?
Reason is that I am getting PM questions asked by people who are experiencing same issue. Does it answer your question? Do you own this lens or just walking around?
Gotta walk around a lot if you wanna be ontime.
Listen, Leonid, can you describe a bit more closely what was that AF \"jerkiness\" like ? For example, AF can overshoot and oscillate (popularly called \"hunt\"), it can creep, it can drive to the focus distance limit (\"search\"), it can stutter/chatter in Servo AF mode like 85L does etc.
Another question: Does Sigma still use that black rustproofing compound for the barrel finishing coat of their EX lenses?
Effect is interesting, when you prefocus on something it doesn\'t jerk/hunt at all. However if you try to focus again on same part of the object it does 3-5 small jerks (hunts) before it is finally locking. That is annoying and happened on my both bodies, low lights or good lights doesn\'t meter.
