[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 285520, member: 13090"] I'll weigh in (HA!) on the Sigma 50-150mm f/2.8 having used on my D7100 for a while now. Simply put the Sigma is as sharp wide open, and across its entire focal range, as my Nikon 85mm f/1.8G and *that* ... is saying something. The big drawback to this lens, in my opinion, is that it weighs in at a whopping [I]four-pounds[/I]. It is, IMO, also conspicuously large. Still, it's my daily walkabout lens because I love having f/2.8 available throughout what is, for me, the perfect focal range for my type of shooting. The amazing sharpness is just so much icing on the proverbial cake. When it comes to lenses, the differences ARE there. Not every photographer can appreciate the differences nor does every photographer need what a more expensive lens might offer but the long and short of it is, there are *reasons* why a $2500 lens is $2500 and why a $200 is lens is $200.
