I predict you won't be seeing any artifacts of the chip unless you are shotting into the sun, then you might get some flaring out of it.
Picture looks good to me, but I'm not viewing it full sized either.
Do some pixel peeping and see if you see anything fuzzy about it. I doubt you will.
Keep the 'chip' clean and it shouldn't be a problem.

Where exactly is the chip on the lens?
Can you take a picture of it?
Might be best to start a new thread so we don't pollute this one.

Go back one page where my 3 cameras are and you can see the chip just above what looks like a bubble.I over think things sometimes,i will just test shoot and be done with it.Besides the sigma actually covers a good range and i like the looks of pics using sigma lenses. I got 10 cameras and lenses rolling around in that grey matter right now,8 new in the last 1 1/2 months,lol.As i said over thinking.Time to take a deep breath.Thankyou.
Many of your preceding posts are not showing any pictures(?)

I agree old_tv_nut, I don't see any now either. I'm wondering if he's hosting them on his computer and they only show if he's logged in here on AK.

If the chip in the lens is the spot just above the lens serial number, I dont think youll have too much to worry about.

Bought these two semi-vintage cameras today. The T80 had been there for a little over a year. The T90, only about three months. I pointed out that they were missing a few parts and got both and the lenses for $30.
I had the entire kit of the T80. Shot it a ton.

Nice shots cratz2, what are you using as a table top in the pictures?
The only piano black surface I've been able to come up with is that of an old lap top computer, but now that has disappeared too.

In these pics, it's an older Mirage subwoofer. It's close to the side wall to the right and I bounce the flash off the wall.
I originally used that setup for macro work where I wanted a black background.
I also use an NHT 2.5i speaker for smaller items. Those aren't quite as polished as the Mirage is.

So that is a painted surface, really nice looking.
I may have to try that with the glass tops of my Column II speakers.
