thanks for all the replies in this thread all v helpful.
i think the lens might have picked up moisture from my house, as the room ive been keeping it in ends up with condensation on the inside of the window.
the cameras i jave downstairs have always been fine, plus i run a dehumidifier down there daily.
i actually have one of these little rechargeable dehumidifiers, this one https://probreeze.com/products/dehumidifiers/cordless-rechargeable-dehumidifier/
so ill put it in a tight box with the lens and leave it for a bit. hopefully will do the trick?
re the lens itself, i bought it used off eBay at the start of summer so i dont know whether it had any issues before i got it or my house has done it but there u go.
ill let you know if any success. should a few days be enough
fyi the above process did the trick. i left the lens like this inside the airtight food box with the rechargeable dehumidifier for a week while i was at work.
since then ive had it out a few times in very cold weather and there has been no evidence of the condensation inside the lens anymore.
thanks for the help appreciate it.
another update, unfortunately its looks like i spoke too soon. was out today and it came back quite badly.
time to ring sigma i think.
