[QUOTE="J-see, post: 414784, member: 31330"] I can't say my Tam fails but there are some issues that range from annoying to not very good at all. The focus freeze is a minor problem and unless you're a paparazzi or shoot other rarities for a living, not something life-threatening. The inconsistent focus is another thing. If it is caused by the VR, it is easily fixed for fast shooting; disable. It's of no use anyways at higher shutters. If it does the same during slow shooting, that's more problematic since at 600mm handheld without VR, the amount of good shots at slow shutters decreases rapidly the more the shutter goes down. Worst case scenario I'll do without VR entirely. I did buy it for the 600mm, not the VR. The Sig is new on the market so time will tell how much more reliable it is. If the cause is something else then it's good I got a 5 year warranty. That should give them the time needed to fix it. [/QUOTE]
