On behalf of the lens, I thank you.. hahaha.

Else, it will likely sit in the dry carbinet once I get my APS lens.

BTW, anyone know if the Sigma APS selling in SG already? I wonder how much it will be.. (hope no surprise.. )

Hee hee, AS won't work...

Just try (potentially dusty), switch off shutter lock (which do not allow you to release the shutter without a suitably chipped lens, like your screw mount), don't mount any lens, set manual mode with a relatively slow shutter. Release shutter, look at CCD, CCD does not move -> AS not working.

I was trying that out when I was planning for a short fan-ad of the 7D... so sad, cannot film AS in action...

Edited Typo

if you don't mount any lens, and when you press the shutter, the LCD will display no lens leh.

You've to set the shutter lock (erh.. can't remember exact name, but in the custom menu) off, so camera will still release the shutter without a lens.
