[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 82473, member: 9521"] I'm going to be the stick in the mud and say there's a very good reason not to buy it - it's a Sigma and not a Nikkor lens. You lose resale value and I've yet to find a case where a non-Nikkor lens is equal or better than the corresponding Nikkor lens. I've heard the Sigma 24-70mm VR is a darn good lens but not quite as sharp as the Nikkor but it does have VR. That said, Nikkor will be unavailing their new 24-70mm VR lens later this year or early next year and it will be interesting to learn how the two lenses compare to one another. [/QUOTE]
