TeamSpeed 01010100 01010011  More info | Feb 26, 2010 14:44 | #2432 I just got mine back from Sigma after a 3 week hiatus there. I couldn't MA it enough to make it good. Now that I have it back, I still needed to MA it, but it is at roughly the same value as all my other lenses (which means the 7D is off a bit), and I really like it. I have 2 buyers lined up for this (first one here on POTN, backup buyer on FM), but after I get more time with it this weekend, I may decide to keep it after all!
