I have that Sigma lens and I recommend it highly. I no longer have the EOS 3 I originally used it with, I now have only a 1V. However, I still use that lens several times a year (I'm not a pro) and IMHO it's an excellent value for the money. I've had no mechanical/electronic problems with it, eith

Hi all, I'd like to have your opinion on this matter: My cameras (EOS 5 and EOS 50E) stopped auto-focusing with this lens (sigma 70-200). I tried other lenses and they work fine (both bodys and glass). The problem is only with this zoom. The first time I attached it to 50E the camera showed MF on
