Denosha said:I've always found the build quality of Sigmas (at least the EX series) to be a lot better than Tamrons. More solidly built. And they have things like HSM that is almost as good as USM (depending on which lens it's on).
However, Tamrons seem to have more compact models? Just compare the size of the 28-75 XR DI F2.8 to a Sigma 24-70 F2.8 EX or even a Canon 24-70 F2.8 L, it's so much smaller and lighter.
Sigma seems to have stories of having a lot of lemos tho. Luckily so far both my Sigmas are "good" copies. Anyway, i would recommend u bring down ur cam and test the hell out of the lens b4 u buy just in case.
NiVleK said:Whilst we are on that, any good 3rd party lens that is comparable to 17-40L or 16-35L?
kerpalz said:these are the configs that i`m looking into....something that is on par with..
Nikkor 12-24mm f3.5-5.6
EF 24-70L f2.8
EF 16-35L f2.8
any Macro lens that is good....
i`m 40%built, 60%optics person...100% cheaper price person.... coz i`m just using these third part for the time being... then i will switch to canon when the time comes....
NiVleK said:You can try the local shops like Cathay, MScolor, TK Photo, etc. Just search for the number and call them up.
Newman said:Cathay doesn't carry Sigma or Tamron lenses. Try Alan Photo instead.
kerpalz said:just to clarify..... does grey set comes with warranty? as in local?
