You're right, I didn't notice its a Super. Good to hear you found the right procedure for your camera. Hopefully you will find the right setting for correct focussing.

I think i found rhe right setting, but I had to push the cursor to around +300 um... This is quit huge compared to corrections other users have done in the past (more around +100/+150)...

From my point of view, I wouldn't worry about that too much. Here's a list where you can compare the numbers against a few lenses I use on the K100D. Although I also initially thought that it could be quite high for the long sigma, so far I haven't noticed any negative effect on the sensor. No minus settings for the lenses I used until now.

Sigma 28-80 / +70
Sigma 70-210/ +350
Revuenon 50 / +100
Revuenon 28 / +160
Revuenon 35 / +130
Pentacon 135/ +50
Pentax 55-300 +200
Pentax 18-55 +-0

First snowfall this winter - K100D + Auto Revuenon 28/2.8 iso800 @2.8

Took advantage of my large umbrella, not while driving though.

Same goes for me, only the barber shops are locked down for now as well

A haircut is one of the things you can't get online.

@paulh: The poor creature looks a bit lost. But it's focused well.

@Simon K: We have an exactly same motorway underpass where I live - even with a very similar outside.

K100D + Sigma Hyperzoom

Thanks. She's not lost, just giving the photographer a chance to catch up!
