Re: Anyone with Canon SL1 + Sigma lens?

Anyone with Canon SL1 + Sigma lens? If so, can you please comment on ovf autofocus performance, and whether you needed to micro-adjust focus? I have a Sigma 17-50 2.8, and autofocus does not work so well with the M3, I'm actually thinking of getting another camera just for this lens.

Thanks,

Woodman

Yours. I was worried before
I bought the sigma about getting a lens that would front focus or require adjustment even though I had a 50D at the time. As far as I can tell, I got a good copy and have not had to adjust anything.

Using live view for video is somewhat noisy but otherwise no real issues.
