Just think though, a vacation lens that zooms from 18-125mm, is
compact and cheap enough that you won't cry if you lose it.

Just how bad is it though for $280 U.S.?
I'd love to see a good test on this lens.

It's good, provided you use it for what it was designed for (eg, DSLR's). It covers the APS-C image sensor, with the 1.6 mag factor, it's the equivalent of a 28-200 on a film camera... so if you're happy with those kind of results, you'll be happy. ;-) Flares like mad with strong light sources in or just outside the frame, and it's a little slow, other than that, it's a pretty cool little piece of hardware! I'm glad Sigma is giving us non-EFS DSLR owners some wide choices, unlike Canon.


If anyone has tried the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8, or the Tokina 12-24mm f4, I'd like to hear some opinions... :-)
