Sigma wide zoom = junk
Forget Dpreview's recommended B.S. It's just them selling glass for a manufacturer. Even ones that don't advertise on the site now are fetted because of the potential for advertising down the road. These test figures are horrible, absolutely horrible. They are so bad at 250mm that you could literally shoot... 17 Feb 2010 00:54
