Hi, i have a sigma 300 2.8 lens i used on my EOS 1N. I finally decided to go digital and have an EOS 10d, the lens just brings up Error on the 10d . Itook it back to Great Western Camera's who sold it to me and they sent it to Sigma, who told me it cannot be re-chipped, i have since been told by another camera shop some independant repairers can do the replacement ,if so have you any names and addresses. The lens is too good to mothball and a new lens is now out of my price range. Any help would be welcolm, Cheers Dave

Would it not have been a good idea to check the two items were compatible prior to purchasing the camera ?

Hi Is the 28-70 a DF type if so it will work on a canon DSLR but if its the older one with the scale ring is on the outside of the lens it will need a rechip but I think thay are no longer avabile the 70-300 if is a super it will work or need a rechip if its a older one with a macro switch held on the lens with 2 screws it to old to up grade
