Ok...May I be the first to recommend we hold a run-off for SigZilla and Sigmasaurus Rex? Since the winner won by plurality and not majority, that means that a majority did NOT want that as the winner....so let's let them decide among the two top ones.

Personally, I will NEVER call the lens by that long, silly sounding name (it sound's like a 4th grader would use it, no offense). Something tells me that SigmaSaurus Rex wouldn't be picked by a lot of people who picked the other names.

What do you think? Run off? My hopes to not have a 'nickname' that is longer to say than the real name of the lens might have one more shot.

i think i see your point. and for one i think just the sigmasaurus part would be used in like a conversation. but yes i see what you mean since a lot of people voted for both.

i guess if CDS and Mr Clean agree to it we'll make it happen

APO 200-500mm F2.8 EX DG is easier to say than Sigmasaurus Rex? hehehe, I kid. I don't really care what it's called as long as I get one! I could go any way, it doesn't matter
Sigmasaurus Rex
Sigmasaurus
Sigzilla

Either way it's a gnarly lens!
