Larry, isn't there a some kind of clutch that you have to engage or
disengage prior to going manual focus?
If the lens is in autofocus and the body is in autofocus, then it
will autofocus without the focusing ring turning.
If the lens is in autofocus and the body is in manual, then it won't
focus.
If the lens is in manual focus, and the body is in autofocus, it will
autofocus, but the focusing ring will turn. It will not manually focus.
If the lens is in manual focus and the body is in manual focus, then
it'll focus manually. The problem being that if feels graunchy, the
focus is not smooth.
Even with the lens off the body, the focus is not smooth.
Hey Larry,
The Siggie 20/1.8 EX DG is one of my faves.
You are quite correct on each quadrant of the matrix. I use it on manual
most of the time, and yes, it does feel like I'm turning gears. It does
the job so I no complain. Rather short throw too, so that helps
