Originally posted by candgpics igitalis, I might be mistaken, and forgive me if I am, but I thought the USB doc did not solve the focusing issue for you. Am I incorrect?
it didn't eliminate all of the AF issues, but the lens is more consistent now. I can predict when the lens most most likely to give me a false positive. The AF on my lens is about 78% accurate, which is better than nothing.
It is important to note that the AF adjustment on Pentax Dslrs is not sufficient for a lens like this, you need to be able to adjust the focus at each focal length, which is what the sigma lens dock allows you to do. Globally adjusting the lens isn't going to solve your problems - it is probably going to make them worse.
