It's basically the experience you get shooting with a shitty pentax 35-80 kit zoom outside and without a hood, but with sigma it happens even if you use a hood. The more you stay away from light (ie: only taking photos of your cat in your "man cave") the better your average sigma will do, but if you're using a lot of strobes and windows you will miss entire photos because of the washed out appearance.
