i just brought a new Sigme lens (18-200mm f/3.5-6.3) Brand new looks real nice havent had a Sigma lens before but I was impressed with the first imression, nice weight to it, felt pretty goood etc.
Put it on my D7000 - Wont auto focus... it:
- ****s around for a good 10seconds and when it does find a "focus" to lock on, it actually not focused at all.
- It jumps around back and forth (sometimes finding the focus but never locking onto it.
- it will continue to try find a sucject for as long as i half hold the shutter button down.
- Tried under lots of different light sources, bright indoor lighting, outdoor cloudy etc (havent tried it in bright sun yet)
Ive played around with setting, like everything?! Im at a loss. Is it faulty? surely Sigma cant sell a lens this crappy it doesnt focus?
Im confused... please help!
