They waited for Japan to look at my pics and tell them what to do next, send it to Japan or just hand it back to me saying it was fine. That pissed me off because it was obvious the lens was NOT fine. In any case, Japan agreed with this and the lens is now on its way to the land of the rising sun. Oh I didn't have to phone Japan.

This seems very common for problem cases at Sigma in Europe and US. I think the larger company's attitude is very positive for customers and service, and they seem not to make things expensive either. If locals won't help you, perhaps a phone or email to Sigma Japan? Good fortune on it, Clive Gregoire, maybe you can get them to send the lens to Sigma Japan.

Unfortunately, Sigma Bangkok doesn't know how to fix my lens. It has a severe front-focusing issue. Reading threads on dpreview, this is apparently extremely common for this lens. This lens is such a good idea, and seems so nice when it works, why was Sigma apparently so sloppy with their quality control? I might get the lens back in a month. Obviously, I'm upset. Looks like you won't see any of my pics with it any time soon. Thanks for your concern, Carl.

Second that photo was taken with my 12-24 @ 12mm (and F11). It's extreme wide angle so a bit distortion is cool. :) But I like wide too.. it's gives a special feeling to groups.

Although the 30mm should give a normal perspective at the SD10 the head in the left corner seems to be distorted to me and this is what I like. I like #12 the picnic.

I hope you're right ;) Carl, I e-mailed the Sigma people telling them I was working for BK Magazine and preparing a shoot for the Airport Authority of Thailand and bla bla bla, to get, you know, a little bit of special attention. It worked. I got a call back from the head technician of Sigma Thailand and he was very very kind if a bit perplexed. He says my lens worked fine on his Canon 350D, the exact same camera I have. Well, I can tell a blurry picture when I see one, so one of us must be crazy! We're meeting Monday morning and I'll tell you how that goes. Well thanks Clive. I hope you're right ;)
