Default I just received my slowest lens and i'm in love (sigma 10-20 f/4-5.6)

This lens is awesome. Color rendition is great, edge sharpness is good. All in all I like it alot. Not as much as my 30mm but damn fine addition to my kit. I am done buying stuff for a while. I got 10-200mm down (and to 400 using my tcon)

You'll love it. I advise you to use it for portrets

How's the barrel distortion? I've just started to really notice how bad it is on my 17-70 at the wide end.

Hehe...Is this a before and after shot?

Love the lens... Handles the sky very well, like a built-in ND filter.
