K6AZ Cream of the Crop More info | Nov 20, 2009 10:58 | #3 Umm... they also have the actual Sigma 105mm macro for $295. That is a great lens, I own it in both Canon and Nikon mounts.

Most of their stuff is refurb, returns, or open box, so make sure to test it thoroughly when you get it home. An open box sigma likely means someone had bad AF calibration. Taylor

I figure if they suck, I'm only out 100 bucks, and I can give them to my sister, who uses my old Rebel for a fancy P&S camera. 7d | 10-20Sigma | 24-105f/4L | 70-200f/4L

Hard to beat. Taylor

I don't know about the Canon mount version but on the Nikon side it is a FF lens.
