Baddrummerboyy Senior Member 501 posts Joined Oct 2006 More info | Oct 24, 2006 17:54 | #1 I am very new to photography. I just bought a canon rebel xti. I been doing a lot of research and found that the sigma 17-70 was one of the best for lens 400 bucks or under. Therefore I order one. I hope I made the right decision. What do you guys think? Current: Canon 40D w/BG-E2N, Canon 30D, Canon 10-22mm, Canon 17-55mm 2.8 IS w/EW-83J, Canon 70-200mm 2.8L IS, Canon 580EX II, Crumpler 6 Million Bag, and B+W MRC on all my glass.

I have to say...instead of saying it's a great lens for the price...It's a great lens. I shot some stuff that is sharp and crisp, fast auto focus, quiet lens, solid build...you will be very happy with it. In a blind test (sorry for the play on words) you coult put it next to a lot of 'better' lenses and it still shines. Robert
