Hi Bros,
Sigma's latest OS (optical stabalizer) 18-200mm new toy will be out this year. I heard the RPP is under SGD950 as compared to the much sort after Nikon's 18-200mm VR.
My question will be, should I consider buying this new OS lens as the price diff is quite substantial, considering the RPP for Nikon lens is around SGD1300-SGD1400. Do you think it is worth taking the risk for this non-tested lens from Sigma?? I mean SGD300-400 difference is to be quite substantial. Moreover, there are alot of creeps and abbreviation issues discussed on the Nikkor and for me if I had a choice to pick a walk-around lens, it will be a heartache to pay such a high price for a "jack of all trade, master of non" kind of lens.
Yr comments appreciated. :think: :dunno: :sweat:
