Does it mean that it is better than Nikon in term of CA, contrast, sharpness?

get the nikon 12-24. absolutely awesome.
my best lens purchase yet! was thikning of getting the sigma, coz its cheaper.. but there is one BIG area sigma is not better in: F4.5-5.6 versus constant F4. The constant F4 is a dream come true. due to the ultra wide angle, i can handhold at slow shutter speeds. So indoor wide angle shots are AWESOME!!! |

not sure what you meant by "at wide-angle, there's more than sufficient light reaching the camera". you probably meant that wide-angle lens allow you to handhold at slower shutter speed with reasonable sharpness.
There's no more light entering for a F4 wide angle lens vs a F4 telephoto lens (for both cases, shutter speed will be the same if the subject is uniformly lit). |

there seems to be an increase in the number of sellers of Sigma 12-24mm in the buy and sell....(2 nikon 1 canon mount)
is the quality so bad that people are offloading them in just months?  |
