Larry: Dance photography: yep.
As for Sigma, - I don't hate Sigma lenses, I don't even have one. :-) Igor PS. Oops.. I do have, exactly one Sigma lens. I got a 28/1.8 from one of the PDMLers almost 3 years ago. It was very handy for some applications, and I've got a few very good shots with it. But it is not on the "short list" of lenses that travel with me all the time.

Hence, I wonder > if somebody has any first impression about it. There are various reviews and hands-on reports on the lens findable with google-fu. People seem to like it. It is high on my list of lenses to keep an eye on. It would be very handy for indoor dance photography, though I suspect that may have already crossed your mind. > > Igor > > PS. Die-hard Sigma haters do not need to worry about responding. :-) Sigma really does seem to be changing their tune lately. They also build a lot of lenses that I wish Pentax did, like a 30/1.4, 85/1.4 etc. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
