Quote:Cool design... I think the zoom range is also well chosen. One can pair it with various alternatives from UWAs. And for the short tele range, I guess we'll be seeing another "new standart" from Sigma soon ... A 35-120mm f/2.8 would be nice for instance...That then would have to be a 35-120mm f1.8, of course
Sigma already has a 50-150mm f2.8 EX DC OS HSM, which will pair it nicely. Only this APS-C lens rivals the 70-200mm f2.8 full frames almost in size and weight... But it does have very sharp optics.
Quote:And as BC mentioned, I agree this one's quite heavy compared to the 24-70mm f/2.8 FFs... Maybe because of the build material and 17 glass elements.Well, obviously it also is heavy because of its f1.8-ness... f2.8 standard zooms for APS-C weight between 500-650 grams already.
