50D micro focus adjustment for Sigma 30mm f/1.4: Does the micro focus adjustment feature of the Canon EOS 50D work for the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM lens?

Yes, just did mine last night. The focus was off 12mm !!! The lens was working fine on my old 350d, totally shocked.

Yes. Works well with all of EOS. The most important it is the lens. Works better with lens like 18-135; 20-200mm; 18-55mm. Because we use the ZOOM and the FOCUS to make the manual focus. For exemple, if you use a 50mm lens, you can just use the FOCUS to make the focus. Because you have not the ZOOM to help.

Hey Jody! Well the rig should work on all DSLRs (I have it and it seems to be very adjustable). However, the focusing component on it-the part that makes it a good deal- definitely doesn't work on all lenses. Any lens with a moving focus ring (most kit lenses), any lens with a focus ring on its end (Canon 50mm 1.8 is what I used) and most likely any lens with a really stiff focus action will end up being a major, major hassle ( like yelling at your lens bad). If you can do without the focusing component, I'd recommend a different rig.

John I used a Minolta to Canon converter to use my old Minolta MD Rokkor manual lens on my digital Canon. It worked fine. I'm pretty sure that the converter will work for your sigma lens but caution as to whether the AF will work. It's probably still worth buying the converter and trying it as you have a good lens that would otherwise go to waste. Hope this helps. Neil

Yes it will. And, quite well, I would imagine.Sigma DC lenses are similar to Canon EF-S lenses in that they will only work with APS-C sensor models, such as the Rebel line (also known as EOS xxxD and xxxxD) and 2-digit EOS models like 40D, 50D, and 60D, as well as the single digit 7D.FYI - It will not work with Full-Frame sensor models, such as 6D, 5D, and 1D.

Yes, the Canon mount of this Sigma lens, will work with any Rebel/T-series, 50d, 60d, 7d, 70d, and all full frame dslr bodies (5D, 5D Mark II, 5D Mark III, etc).Keep in mind that on your T3i body (aps/cropped sensor) the focal range will be approximately 112mm-320mm due to the 1.6 crop factor of the smaller sensor.

the 50mm 1.4D has an aperture ring, no SWM motor onboard (requires the camera body AF motor - via screw drive). Making the D not compatible (just for AF - manual works fine) on the D40/D60 and similar bodies. D3000 also and likely some others (i'm not as familiar with the new bodies). The newer 50mm 1.4G has no aperture ring but does have a SWM motor making it compatible with all bodies with and without onboard AF motors. Your D90 like it's D80 predecessor DOES have the body AF motor so you can get either and AF will work.

Wow...nobody ever answered this question? The Canon EF 28-135mm will work on all Canon EOS cameras, including the Canon 50D.

With Sigma look for DG in the lens description to identify FX compatible lenses. In the case of the Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 AF APO DG OS HSM. the letters DG are what you care about and OS (optical stabilized) for long lenses like this one. I use this lens on my D700, D800 and D80 (IR converted) with good results. Go for it. Good price and my experience is that it is a good lens.

Yes, it will work per Sigma APO Teleconveter reference guide.APO 50-500mm F4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM MF MF * MF MF MF MF MF MF * - - MF MF *See Sigma site for APO Teleconverter compatibility: http://www.sigmaphoto.com/teleconverter-compatibilityI have a Sigma 70-200MM f/2.8 lens and I use this Sigma APO EX DG 2x converter and it works great but keep in mind it will work in Manual Focus only...

Yes, this lens will work on a Canon 50D camera. However, it is a manual focus lens only.

about canon ef 35-80 lens. Iam not sure but I believe that it will does work on the canon eos 50d. almost it will work on the all canon eos machines.but you dont use it together with wide angle lens and telefoto.because it isnt ef-s lens.

I'm in the same boat. I have a 40d as well and I just bought the Canon 50mm 1.8 but found that I was always "stepping back" to take a lot of indoor shots. I am leaning towards either the Sigma 30 1.4 or Canon 24 f2.8. The 24 got a good review at the photozone.de site. Here's a direct link if Amazon will let it through: http://www.photozone.de/canon-eos/153-canon-ef-24mm-f28-test-report--review?start=2. They review just about every lens. Check it out. Again, it's photozone (dot) de

No. Canon extenders only work with Canon L series lenses, not regular EF lenses, which is what the Sigma is considered. I use a Vivitar Series One 2X teleconverter on my Sigma and it works amazingly well, both AF and exposure.

Canon EF series lenses will work on both the 50D and the 5DMkIII. The EF-S series lenses will only work on smaller sensor cameras like the 50D, not on full-frame cameras like the 5D.

I've been using Kenko close-up filters/lenses on my 14-45, 45-200. 28mm & 50mm K-mount slr lenses and they work pretty well. They really shorten the 36" focus distance of the 45-200.Even after 4 months, I'm not sure what the lady was really asking. I think she was under the impression that a G1 micro 4/3 had a macro/close-up mode just like a P&S;, and they don't.
