Sigma lenses for D70??? Arethey OK?

[crystalview]

Hey there,

I have a d70 on its way to my house and im looking for a couple other lenses to add besides the kit 18-70 dx. Are sigma lenses decent quality?

How about this... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3343&item=3835122196&rd=1#ebayphotohosting

Is this lens a joke? Or will it take good photos?

Any help would be great.

Sigma is a respected lens maker but like any lens maker, they have duds and gems. I don't know about this particular lens but you should be able to dig up some info on the net, somewhere.

On a D70, that's a 750mm field of view...wow that's a lot.

I use a Sigma 70-300 zoom on my D70 from time to time and it has never let me down.Good lens for the buck.

I have the 28-70mm f2.8 and the 70-200mm f2.8 that will be going onto ebay soon. I want to get Nikon glass I find that my segma lenses are always alittle soft focus and my nikon glass give me better shots.
just my 2 cents
