Hello everybody,
I have a D5100 and I'm in the market for a 70-200mm 2.8. All the reviews seem to say that the Tamron has great optics/pic quality but is too slow. Focus speed is important so I think the Tamron is off the table.
Question - What are your experiences with the latest Sigma that everybody is glowing about? Is it as good as some are saying or are the reviewers getting paid to say Tamron/Nikon/Canon/Sigma are great?
I've read that Sigma has a hit-or-miss lens making history but this new lens is a marked departure - in a good way. Is this true?
As far as the Nikon VRI or VRII goes - that's a pipe dream and just too expensive.
Thanks a ton guys....
