Cheers mate. Don't think so, no.

Might just stick it on eBay and hope for £20 or something!

I'm not saying that's what it is but that would be my guess. Is it a sigma 70-300? Looking online you can get them brand spankers for about £100 so a second hand faulty one probably isn't worth a lot unfortunately, could always try it on eBay as spares as someone might want to try and fix it.

Have you got any camera shops local that can have a proper look?

Fair does pal, nice one!

Take it the lens won't be worth anything now then?

I didn't watch it with sound first time round :lol: sounds like the motor isn't quite catching a cog somewhere but who knows. I take it any other lenses work? Might be worth looking for another unfortunately, the cost of a fix is likely to be more than a new one!

Exactly the same mate. Doesn't focus regardless of lens cap on or off.

Serious question. What does it do without the lens cap on?
