I never seen a lens becoming a "test for testers": Sigma rumors list about two dozen links of people or labs who already tested this lens. 
The verdicts are pretty close, the big fun is reading the "cons". Here we can see great samples of fantasy :blink:
One tester complains about the lack of a decent DoF scale. For street photgraphy. Man, get a Leica and zark off <_< Neither Nikon nor Canon (except the 50/1.2L and it's a bit doubtful how much of a use this DoF scale is) have more than two points for f/16.
And the weather sealing is usually a candidate as well. Btw - the Otus is weather sealed, isn't it?
No? Blast. But it HAS a very excellent, very yellow DoF scale.
I had it with me yesterday, wanted to snap some exciting moments of the Swiss folding bike championships - please don't laugh! I can't complain about AF speed or enough keepers.
