Tamron cheaper.... and after reading some revied, Sigma have had a few AF issues.

Dont get close up and use 17mm, but stand far back and use closer to 50mm and make sure the person is photographed from head to toe. Would love to see how the crops look after that. The most important piece of gear you own, resides in your head and its called your brain.
