Hi Rob,
Can you focus it properly? This is the main problem I've always had with Sigma lenses on Pentax bodies: when you adjust focus for a given focal length, you get a gross focus error at other focal lengths. This was the reason for selling my Sigma 17-70 f/2.8-4 OS HSM in a month and even the 70-200/2.8 shows that problem to a certain degree, so that I had to adjust it for something between 135-200mm and use the DA* 50-135mm below that.

Yeah, the 17-50/2.8 is almost permanently on my #2 body, it's pretty good.

Are you sitting down? Best lens for both prime and zoom category is a Sigma ...

No big surprise: the good lenses all measure as sharper on the K-3. If
you have a DA* 55/1.4 on your K-3: suhweet! (As you will have
discovered for yourself by now anyway.)

They haven't yet measured the DA* 50-135/2.8, the DA* 60-250/4, or any
FA Ltd's, so that may change the chart.
