KR is an idiot - or a genius- depending on the time of day, blood alcohol level, subject being discussed, and many other unknown factors. The new Sigma 35mm f1.4 has been seriously tested by many, including DXOMark.com and dpreview and shown to be the leading 35mm lens made by any maker. Carry around a 70-200mm f2.8 VRII all day by most serious photographers?????? Man, it this a dumb statement! I mean, this sucker is big andheavy! Kinda like walking around with a 1/2 gallon milk carton hanging from your neck.

Yup, KR is pretty much a walking, talking controversy! Genius by day, idiot by night and also depending on the other factors you've mentioned.

Yes, the new Artline Sigma 35mm and yes it's delicious! But I could not afford it so I went for NIkon's 35mm 1.8G instead. Now I'm hoping Sigma will also make a 24mm in Artline guise but make it a cheaper f1.8 or F2 and more compact. Go Sigma!
