The 10-20 had serious issues when originally released (As many Sigma's do). But they've got the issues under control and you can now reliably get a good copy (As happens to many Sigma designs once Sigma has ironed out their production bugs). It's heavy but not particularly large (Remember this is the equivalent of a 15-30mm lens, everything else of similar range is larger)
