Sigma 20-40mm f/2.8 EX DC
A discontinued lens from Sigma, I was recently checking one of these out for sale. I personally need a walkaround with some speed to it, and have been considering going prime, but like the flexibility of even a little zoom range. I currently own a Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 and it has yet to blow my socks off...its slow on the long end, which renders it unusable (sometimes) in a pinch, it has lens creep, and I hate how the ring rotates during autofocus.
Does anybody have the 20-40mml? While it seems rather cumbersome and heavy, if it's a good pickup, I might make the plunge. I think it is a good "normal" range to have on the camera for typical composition work, and even some portrait work. Or Should I stop being cheap and spring for a DA* 16-50?
Thoughts?
