Maybe its a hang up from my MF days: I do use AF but dont trust it (!) so always use the centre AF point and recompose. 95% of the time the other AF points are redundant as far as I'm concerned and its generally too fiddly to change the AF point quickly.

Dan - thanks for the advice. I had not checked if one wheel was between clicks but will do if it ever happens again. To be honest the Sigma was such a bad lens (would not produce a sharp image) I returned it after only a few days. Have not had any similar problems with any other lens before or since.

Have not had that problem but I have had the rear command dial stop working when, and only when, a brand new sigma 20mm EX DG lens was attached. Have had no problems at all with any other Sigma AF lenses, which are 5-15 years old. Very odd - I wonder of the latest EX DG lenses have a bug?

After much debate I actually went for the sigma 20mm. Even after adjusting for ff/bf found it to be almost impossible to get a sharp photo at anything wider than f5.6 so returned it from whence it came with disgust. Have just taken delivery of a used Pentax 20mm which is much much better. Feel free to say "I told you so!"

I wouldn't be surprised if it has been discontinued given that the sdm 55mm f1.4 and the 43mm f1.9 are available. Do we really need a 50mm f1.4 as well?

I am now the happy new owner of a BG-10, having been kindly pointed in the right direction as to where to find one (the AF flashguns page of Ffordes!)

Thanks to SMC!!!!
