    Your best bet would be to take it to a camera shop, or find someone with a Nikon or a Canon camera and see if it will attach to the body.

    well you could take a shot of it and post it up... if its Canon or Nikon mt it should be easy to see... and maybe someone else could help you on another brand...

    Have you asked the person who "assigned" it to you? They might know. Without seeing it, we're not going to be able to help you.

    Can you take the rear lens cap off and show us some photos of the actual mount?

    Thats a Canon EOS mount... as its not a DG model with (possibly) not the latest chip it should be compatable with up to Canon 10D/D60 series... Sigma will rechip that to bring it up to the newest chip for free though...

    I had bought one of these from KEH with the prior chip and it would not work properly with a Canon 20D...just some food for thought...
