G'day. I have just got a Sigma 24-135 for the Ds as a walk around lens. Tried it last weekend. Very good considering the zoom factor. Sharp enough above 5.6. But the 2.8 @ 24mm is handy. Bit on the large size and a tad heavy, But I like a bit of weight for stability reasons.
Got it from Cameta via Ebay. Hooroo. Regards, Trevor.

(A very good outing!) The lens simply won't focus close enough for this application. If I'd have thought about it before we left, I'd have figured it out but...um I didn't CW bummed. Needs a new walk-around zoom.
