Summary for Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro Lens ...- Great lens wtih a great price with only minor flaws
Notes on Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro Lens ...- I love this lens. I really wanted something faster than 3.8 for my portrait work. This lens gives me zoom with the speed I need. My only complaint is that somtimes it seeks for the focus and I have missed a few shots because of this. If you can take your time with what you are shooting this is not a big deal for you. Great Lens!

Notes on Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro Lens ...- This lens is an excellent lens for wide angle shots, general macro work, in addition to being solid as a general zoom lens. Great contrast, tack sharp focus and a smooth zoom. Internal focus allows for use of a Circular PL filter, drop-ins etc. Some vignetting at 17mm with attached, non-wide angle filters...not enough an issue for me to rush out for the wide angle drop-in filter adapter. After shooting with one for six months, I've bought one for my wife's D70s rig.

Notes on Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro Lens ...- No matter what I say about this lens, it is not enough to give it as much credit as it deserve. Really, I read a lot about this sigma lens before I bought it, and when it did arrive it is totally different. Check my macro shots in my flickr www.flickr.com/photos/engineeroo

Notes on Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro Lens ...- I was looking for a lense that would replace my nikkor 18-55mm lens. I wanted somthing around the same zoom range, and mabe with a little more reach if possible. I spent hours looking up reviews and asking questions all over the internet! I fnially came up on the sigma 17-70mm lense, which is the perfect range!! 17mm is pretty wide-angle and its great for pretty much anything like family group shots or senic shots. and the 70mm is great for macro photos of flowers, plants and bugs all the way down to portrait close up shots. and to make the lense even better, its macro!! you will not believe how close you can focus with this lense! it will blow you away!! it will also open up a new and different world of photography for you! the lense is also very very sharp, which was the most important thing for me in finding a lens.
Overall, i highly reccomend this lens!! its an awsome all-around lens thats well worth the money!! you will not regret spending aound $300 for it. once you try it, you will fully understand what im talking about! BUY IT!!
