Default Sigma Servicing? (Broken Autofocus)

Hi guys, i have got a 28-70 f2.8 but it wont auto focus anymore. I dont think it is still under warranty anymore. Am i suppose to bring it back to sigma service to fixed? How much will that cause roughly? Or is there alternative like finding someone to fixed at the cheaper rate?


Thanks,

Sent the lens to Jalan Bukit Merah. Nice people there. Says that they will check the problem for free.

just curious. how much did they charge to fix the AF? i was at the Sigma service centre to get my lens recalibrated and i overheard the technician telling another customer that to fix the AF on her lens would cost about 100+

Fixed the focusing engine for 135. It was a total gone case from the technicians. They had to replace it. Pricey but bo bian.
