comment:	I was looking for a brighter lens than my kit Sony DT 4-5.6/55-200, but I did not want to pay the price for a 2.8 70-200... I stumbled upon this lens on e-bay, but at the time I was not aware that certain old Sigma lenses had a chip compatibility problem with the newer Sony bodies. My lens is serial number 1010736 and it definately does not work with my a350. When I attach it to the camera body, I get a "no lens attached" warning on my display! So I disassembled it: Made with Slideshow Embed Tool
