Sigma 70-210 f/2.8 lens for $680
I came across a shop in Golden Arcade, and saw this lens (they called it a lens for film cameras) from Sigma.The optics is in good condition and I bought it.I tried it with my Canon 300D and it gave an error 99 at bright objects, but worked Ok when I point it at very dark location (when the camera indicated a f/2.8)
I search the web and find out this is because the old Sigma lenses for EOS has the non-compatible firmware with real EOS.It simple cannot communicate with the EOS command for closing the aperture.Apart from this the len is fine.I surely will not need to close the aperture when shooting the stars!
But now I need to find a lens hood of 82-mm diameter!
PTS Hi PT
It is Lo Wing Fan, long time no see, How are you ?
I have bad experience of using Sigma zoom len (up to 70mm) which focus lock was not
functioning and problem not fixed yet.

Hi my old friend Lo
I don't have much experience with Sigma lenses.I get this because it is so cheap!By the way, I've made a lens hood out of a plastic beaker (~500 ml size).
