[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 373640, member: 15805"] I own three 28/2.8s. My Nikkor 28/2.8 AF-D is the worst lens I own (of [B]all[/B] my lenses, not just these 3!) in terms of IQ. I've tried 4 copies and they were all the same..... so-so in the middle and utterly useless in the corners. My Sigma 28/2.8 Mini-Wide II is [I]whole lot better[/I], but just not AF. It's on par with my 28/2.8 Nikkor pre-Ai (complete with semi-botched DIY Ai conversion). [I]If AF is not a concern, forget the AF-D[/I]. It's a pig, and you can't put lipstick on it. Consider it ONLY if having AF is a huge factor. I'll probably sell my pre-Ai 28 if the Siggy ends up out-performing it. [/QUOTE]
