Hey, I had Sigzilla in the other thread first! :lol:

I like Mr Cleans Sigmasaurus best, but it needs Rex at the end.

So my official Nominations are;

SigmaSaurus REX (from Mr Clean)
SigZILLA
Kamalla The Ugandan SIGMA (this one is more of a personal in joke thing)

agreed!! SIGMASAURUS REX is an awesome name!

others i liked from the other thread were:

Sigmanator
Sigmungus

I like Sigzilla. it has a nice ring to it. Bill, you should start a poll and have people vote on it. ;)

This lens is interesting. I'd like to own it. Maybe it'll quench my lust of the 300 f2.8L IS. :shock:

It sure resemles a 1:3 scale of the N941NA (external link).


"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.
