Try tightening the mount on the lens. The screws in Sigma lenses have a tendency to work loose over time which causes misalignment.

Alan Marlow ... just google it.

Saying that contact Sigma themselves, they are very reasonable and pretty fast (sometimes Alan can be a bit busy).

Sigma Service Tariff Price List is here - IIRC, that includes RM 1st Class Signed-for return carriage.

Service is generally pretty quick - and they have access to a wide range of parts, sometimes direct from Japan (although that might take longer, but doesn't cost you any more)
(A fan of Sigma Imaging UK )
K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)
