Thank you everyone for puttting me on the right track ...again!


I re-microadjusted both the Canon 85mm and the Sigma 85mm ...and this time I did not use LiveView and all went very smoothly.


FINAL VERDICT: The Sigma is the definite winner! Although the Sigma now focuses slightly faster than it did originally, the Canon still focuses faster. Also, the Canon is more hand holdable. The Sigma for the most part needs to be used with a tripod. So why not stay with the Canon you ask? Because the Sigma is definitely sharper, better bokeh and has better contrast and of course is better in low light.


I by all means am not anti-Canon 85mm f/1.8, I still think it is an awesome lens it
