Thanks everyone for the assistance. This is why am proud to be a Pentax owner
My apologies regarding the focal length confusion. What I meant was the distance. I cannot get it to be calibrated across all distance especially at 1 to 2 meter and at infinity. Even when I thought everything was calibrated and once am out shooting the next week , I still have issues. I tend to do in camera adjustments during that time and I miss all moments
. It spoils the mood and hence thought myself that I will not be wasting any more time in adjusting this and rather will get used to manual focussing.
I shoot hand held most of the time when I go out with my family since my Manfrotto tripod is but heavy to carry it around. Am actually planning for a Newzealand trip in month of October and thinking of getting a light weight tripod and an ultra wide lens to suit my budget. Now that I cannot trust the sigma 35mm lens , I will have to look for alternate solution without breaking my bank.
I believe CRKennedy handles all warranty and am not sure if there is option to context Sigma directly.
Regards,
Matt
