Ah, That's OK then!

I can still remember being shown a new TV with an almost round screen, must have been about 1956? It was the first TV in the village and everybody came round to see it. Don't think I ever saw it working though. I was told reception wasn't too good and it took about ten minutes for the valves and tube to warm up to get a proper picture.

Super sharp image Iain.
Was that first one a crop and the second a full frame version?

Your lens seems to be loads sharper than other people's examples I've seen from that lens. Did you get it recalibrated at Sigma? Phil Tompkinson at Blueyonder reckoned that was the first thing he did when buying a Sigma...sent it to Sigma UK to have it readjusted ...correctly.

If yours is straight out of the box ...you've got a brilliant version.:thumbs:
