it came today, seems pretty good, awesome at macro but seems to go for the widest apertture possible when shooting in Automatic. In fact in just about any condition other than bright daylight its down around f1.8 or 2.5.So using Aperture priority quite heavily! Any reason why it would do this? I dont believe its the "front focussing" issue that plagues the sigmas on canon.EXIF data available.
