B) It zooms very nice feature C) If the previous versions are any indicator it has flawless optics All models have great optics, problem with non OS was crappy AF. Problem with newer OS model was failing OS and no AF limiter. Hope all this gets resolved with this version. D) Sigma prices always creep down. Yup. next yr it will be < $2800 or so used. Fuji XT-1, 18-55mm
