Be careful, take all Moose has to say with the fact > that he is sponsored by Tokina. I'm not going to dispute the sponsorship, but if you go to his webpage, and work your way to the "free" copy of the "BT Journal" that is available for download in PDF format, and read that issue (Vol3, I), there is a short article he wrote comparing the Sigma 400/5.6 Macro AF and the Tokina 400/5.6 ATX. He explains that the factors for him switching are that the Tokina is faster to AF, and it's noticeably lighter than the Sigma (990g v. 1445g).
