I test lenses for a magazine.  When the newer Sigma 50/1.4 came out it
was the fourth copy of that lens that I received that did not show
severe signs of decentring.  I got bad 35 and 85 1.4 lenses first go
too.  If this is what they are sending for review, maybe it's more of
a problem with pre-production products, but I doubt it.
