Guys, these Sigma lenses have been tested and commented up and down by virtually every photo magazine and test site there is on the net. For those of you who read French I can recommend "les numeriques", les "pixelistes", "Nikon Passion", "le monde de la photo", "Chasseur d'Images" , etc., etc.! The results are mostly the same all over; as for the 24-70 F2.8 there is a consensus that the Nikon issue maybe is somewhat better, but not hugely, whereas the 70-200 versions are virtually undistinguishable between Sigma and Nikon, apart from the price. Below are a couple of examples. Then give Klaus and Markus a break for a while <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Good reading

Thanks for the links, however I don't speak French so those links are just a bunch of shots of bricks to me. Those reviews are not up to the standards we see here on PZ.
It's a bummer Sigma service in the EU is like that. I have heard nothing but good feedback about Sigma USA service.
