I have been spending way too much time comparing two different lenses,
Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 (600$)
Tamaron 17-50mm f/2.8.(400-450$ without VC).
Its tough because although they get nearly identical reviews i have seen some terrible test images for the tamarons auto-focus, which makes me wonder if the sigma is worth the extra 150.00 (if you have any personal recommendation feel free to share)
While comparing all their specs on B&H i noticed their "angles of view" are different:
Sigma: 72.4° - 27.9°
Tamaron: 78° - 31°
what does this mean? how can they be different if they are both "17-50mm" ?
