BUY BUY BUY (okay, it's a new sigma lens)

New 24-60/2.8 for digital sensors. Approximately 35-90 in 35mm terms. All buy, okay?

:bigeyes: :nono: :blah: :devil:

LOL~

Canon users, Nikon users and even Sigma users all can BUY

More information (even marketing rant) would be appreciated.
24mm on a 1.6x (= 35mm) is still pretty long for a wide-angle leh...so used to true 24mm on film.

My view is we did not need this lens to be around. Canon DSLR users like me, would appreciate if they come out with a 18-50mm F2.8 whether is for 35mm or digital doesn't matters. 1.6 X would give use something like 28-80mm angle of view.

I would rather buy a sigma 24-70 f2.8 if I need this range. I can use that for my 35mm as well. So I think something is truely amazing about the Sigma for them to come out a duplicate but less useful lens.

IMHO, anything like a 18-50mm F2.8 to replace their 17-35mm f2.8-4 would secure them as leader in this third party market for digital users immediately!
