I've just received the Sigma 17-70mm and due to some of the reviews about back/front focusing decided to run a couple of tests.
I have downloaded the focus chart and running the test on that suggests that the lens has a serious back focus problem, yet pointing the camera straight on at some text on a notepad it seems to be fine.
Anybody have any comments
This is the test chart. You may not see it at this size, but the greatest focus is around the 30mm mark above the focus point.
This is the notepad with focus being on the "e" in Tel and it look fine to me.
Anybody have any thoughts on this?
