My 10-24 has been in the workshop

After three years of the 10-24mm f3.5-4.5 G being the most frustrating lens I own, I last week finally took it in to a service place to get properly tested. One repairer two years ago charged me $60 to tell me it was fine and it just needed a clean. The repairer I took it to this time has a very good reputation and offered to test it while I waited. It came back as "your resolution's fine, but it's a got a front-focus problem."

I picked it up yesterday and the service docket reads:

rewrote adjustment data
checked switches, encoders and brushes
initialised shift data to zero
adjusted focus shift
checked and tested

I've only used it once since picking it up and I do think it's better, though it'll be the weekend before I can give it a good workout (at a car show).

Does anyone have any idea what '
rewrote adjustment data', 'initialised shift data to zero' mean in layman's terms?

Gave the 10-24mm a short workout today and there's definitely an improvement. Really glad I a got a second opinion!
