I'm wondering if anyone on the forums here has had issues with their Sigma 60-600 Sport lens.
I've had mine just under a year and used it extensively and very happy with it's performance in general - up till Saturday during a match.
The lens just stopped focussing and the camera wouldn't take a picture. I isolated it to be definitely the lens and as it's just still under warranty it's already on it's way to Sigma for repairs.
Searching the internet I see it may be a known issue with the firmware that can cause this and Sigma maybe able to update it with a fix. Although this advisory came out before I purchased my lens, it is in the range of affected serial numbers. https://www.sigmaphoto.com/article/sigma-60-600mm-sport-and-70-200-sport-firmware-update-6-6-2019
I also mentioned on my fault report to the repair centre that the lens has a some play between the lens and camera and I see there are some minor marks on the collar mount, that may or may not be the cause. Part of the the weather sealing rubber ring around the collar also came out once and I managed to push it back in.
Anyone else have issues with their lens?
