Hi Khoff,
To answer your questions -
1) Does the newest firmware address any of these issues? Certainly update the firmware because at the very least it "improves stability"
2) Does the Sigma need a fine tune adjustment. I personally do not use a new lens without checking the focusing. My 70-200 runs about +6 on the K-3 micro focus adjustment. Be aware that there is a auto focus set difference between 70mm and 200mm, particularly obvious at short distances, so find a happy median setting that suits you shooting.
3) Should I just return the K3 and lens, avoid all the hassle and get the Sony A77ii? If the firmware update does not fix the mirror flapping my personal opinion is the camera is faulty and should be returned. (I don't have experance with the Sony A77ii so I cannot comment on that.
