    50/1.4G backfocus issue

    Hey Guys,

    My 50mm 1.4G is definitely back focusing. I've spent a few weeks using it and have come to the conclusion that i just can't live with it focusing like this. Of course it is especially a problem when using it wide open. It seems that when in live view, it is much more accurate with the contrast focus, but through the view finder the AFS is off significantly. Anyone know where i can take it around Newcastle or Sydney to have it recalibrated? And any idea how much it costs. I purchased it new, but its a grey import, so i ran the risk and it burned me.

    Cheers for any help you can give me.
