     BC. It doesn't make any difference what mode you are in and the D750 has good AF.  What we have here is a lens that accurately and reliably focuses just "in front" of the subject, it will be a great lens on the D500 and any other that just happens to remain within the AFFT.

 

 JoJu.  Yes there's a push pull slightly clunky mechanism for MF which works as it should.

   

    It looks like new and was a "one lady owner copy" box, pouch papers and all........absolutely no signs of it having done ten rounds with Mike Tyson!

 

 Sigma has never been renowned for it's focus accuracy over the years but has always provided good value for money glass, the same remains, only the glass is better than ever, unfortunately the many reports of capricious AF accuracy continue to the frustration of many, you've only to read the forums!

 

  Even though you slant the purchase price of my S/H lens as the probable reason for an AF problem that however works fine on the D500

     .....how do you align that with a lens with it's notoriously fickle AF, the Sigma 18-35 F1.8, which "is" expensive?

 

   It seems that price doesn't buy you out of the problem!

 

        The deal is struck with the Nikor AF 80-200 F2.8D!  another really cheap bargain basement lens, we will see if hiding behind that attractive price tag lurks another can of worms and whether Nikon's AF will be up to the job?
