    anyone know anything about this lens..can't seem to find any reviews as yet. i know it is for small sensor but i was wondering more about image quality.

    I have the Nikon version. I get mixed results with it. Waiting patiently on Nikon or Sigma version with VR (IS).

    thanks, the review was much more detailed than the one i found myself. guess i will just go with a wider angle and be done with it.

    good idea, jann. when it comes to tele, it seems that you definitely get what you pay for. there aint so such thing as a free lunch, so they say...

  7. I think it's going to be as "good" or "bad" as Sigma 18-200 (which I personally dislike). On the other hand, however, when Sigma release their 18-200 VR, I may be the first in line to buy it.
