Re: Sigma 18-35/3.5-4.5 MF query

Peter, I use the AF version of this lens on the MZ-S and haven't noticed any 
problems with it.  Of course, I don't manually focus it much,but I must have 
done so a few times!  Given the extreme wide-angle at the short end, I guess 
one can do it by scale.

Is anyone using the Sigma 18-35mm F3.5-4.5 Aspheric manual focus lens on a 
film
body? If so how are you finding the performance? Is the small max aperture 
a
problem with focussing? I think this is an obsolete lens, with a few new 
ones
left in the distribution chain.

Thanks.
