I just sold a Sigma 70-200f2.8 on eBay. The buyer is complaining that it won't focus with live view, so he wants to return it.

I've never used it with LV so it's news to me!

My belief is that the focusing system is down to the camera not the lens (he has a Nikon D7500), and that he should use optical focusing (ie the viewfinder).

It is reasonable to expect a 20-25 year old lens to work with a D7500's live view system?



NB I've withdrawn the payment from my eBay account which is now at zero. Can they still make me refund him?
