I loved the part about the chief of optical testing! 

In my Pentax days, I remember having sent a Pentax DA* 16-50 back and it came back exactly the same, nothing had changed.

It's a shame manufacturers don't take it a bit more seriously. The lack of good QC in the first place doesn't help either.

It looks the new Sigma direction is trying to change a little all of this. Let's hope others will follow.

Hey Klaus,

 

I see my thread was posted twice for some reason (??!).

Can you please delete this instance?

Thanks!
