[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Sorry you are having so many problems JoJu.......
How many of those problematic lenses are Sigmas? (please clarify) I have read too many threads about focusing niggles. I'm kind of nervous about their compatibility.
At the moment I have...
AF-20mm F2.8D
AF24mm F2.8N
AF35mmF2D
AF 50mm F1.8D
AF55 F2.8 micro and the AF85mm F1.8D
two zooms AFS 70-300mm VR and my Tamron 150-600! .....so yes not many zooms, but both the Tamron and the Nikon zoom are pretty much spot on....I took 200 shots yesterday with the Tamron at the river.........medium/long/close distance.......I had dialed in first -1 then -2 maybe -2 was slightly better, only quick reaction shooting produced some misses anything slow moving was nailed 95% good.
Maybe if I was shooting at F1.4 I would suffer similarly, but I find F1.4 visually to shallow a DOF for portraits, very nice for nighttime street scenes.
I suppose with all this nocturne talk you guys are going to push me towards a 85mm F1.4 lens.........OMG more money!
Oh Hohoho...........what fun bickering about mirror-less vs DSLRs early on a Thursday morning when we should be doing something more constructive! :unsure: :blink:
