briefly post what are considered the really unusually good lenses from
Sigma, Tamron, Tokina for the EOS line.
I don't seem to discern a general concensus as to which of these
manufacturers is overall the best, so if I'm missing something, I'd
welcome enlightenment, without starting a flamefest.

HI,
>From experience, I think that Tamron 90Macro is great - I own it, and love
the optics.
I also had a great deal of Tokinas - 80-200 AT-X pro 2.8, 28-80 AT-X Pro 2.8,
300/4.0 AT-X, and all offer great glass, only AF is rather on the slow side.
Well 28-80 2.8 has a new AF, which is plenty fast for me.
Sigma's new (or not so new anymore) EX series - I had only 50 2.8 Macro EX
and it was great. I understand other EX series are very good too.
Hope this helps. You can also see my reviews on some of those lenses at my
web site:
