I rang CR Kennedy to check when I was going to get my ist D back (sent it in
for AF inaccuracy with the Sigma 28-70 2.8 DF, and battery depleted message
when connecting to the laptop with battery grip) and they told me they were
waiting for a part. I asked which part and they told me they were replacing
a circuit board in the camera.. How bizarre.

But anyway, it better be working when I get it back (they told me it'd be
another 2 weeks! :( )

And another poster on DPReview (WallyOZ) updated me on his woes with the
same camera and the same lens, apparently he's returning the Sigma 28-70
2.8, 50 2.8 Macro and 100 2.8 Macro, and going to cash it in for a Nikon D70
and lens, and also get a Pentax lens for the Pentax. He also told me he was
on the waiting list for the 20D! Apparently he's sick of opinions and
decided to try them all out himself. I told him to wait for the Maxxum 7D,
and from what he replied, I won't be surprised if he gives that a try when
it's out..

Cheers,
Ryan (on an epic quest towards budget liberation..)
