Would you buy the Sigma if it was available to Pentax at $1200.00?*
This poll will close in a couple of days. I'd be nice to get lots of votes to send to Sigma
Ok I thought I'd try to get everyone possible on the forum to vote (like a petition of sorts). We have almost 4400 active members here so that should say something to Sigma. There's tons of discussion on the wants of this lens and people on Ebay are willing to spend more than MSPR for the used ones that sometimes show up.
So vote yes or no as to whether you would buy this lens if it was available at the MSRP of $1200.00 USD and once this poll has run for 4 weeks or so I'll email the results from it to Sigma. Unless of course we only get 100-200 voters then that's not going to convince them it's worth the effort. I encourage those that own the lens to vote as well. If you own it but didn't, would you want it now that you've used it.
Here's the data on the new macro version that does not yet have the Pentax mount:
Sigma - Lenses
BTW 1 vote per member (try to keep it real)
* This is the Canon, Nikon and Sigma MSRP price on the Sigma Web site. Dealers have been selling this lens for considerably less in those mounts. Let's assume that if this mount was also in Pentax, that the store discount price would also match those of the other mounts.

Reason: Explaining the price.
