Let's hope the Sigma is cheaper than $87,300.00 ;-)

Thank you Sigma - keep developing new APS-C lenses!
A wide prime like a 2.0/16 DX would be nice or a small 2.8/50-135 :-)

I used both. Formerly owned the Nikon 70-300 VR and now I own the Tamron 70-300mm f4-5.6 SP Di VC USD.The IQ of the Tamron is better on the long end (the Nikon copy I had was good but felt a litte...

@ Sigma, Tamron and Tokina:please come to the rescue:http://www.bythom.com/dxsurvey.htmBest regards,Matt

All DX:Compact 2,8 / 16mm1,8 / 70mm2,8 / 50 - 150 VR or2,8 / 50 - 200 VRBest regards,Matt

Hi motobloat,Thanks a lot for your insight!I guess I would have different usages like events/portraits on the one hand and zoo/daughter playing/hopefully agai safari on the other hand. As I already...

How do you like the 50-150 now that you could use it a bit? And how do you asses the IQ with a leleconverter?A 2,8 tele zoom would be great; probably I will wail to see how it compares to the new...

Very nice work! The typewriter is classic and the girl with the camera is also great.I keep wondering wether the composition on the first picture is "right" - somehow the symetry and the central...

@DPReview: why isn't there a preview for this camera?
I can already order it on amazon.de...

I am not a Samsung fanboy (usually use Nikon and just bought a LX7) but my sister is interested in a...

Possibly even 1.400€ or 1.500€, which would also mean 1.400$ or 1.500$ in the US.Best regards, Matt

I belive that the Nikon feels better, but at least the Tamron is also moisture-resistent :-)Personally I would also expect an initial street price of 1300€ but hope for reductions in the first yea...

I am looking forward to that lens! Starting with two Nikon zoom lenses I gradually changed to three 3rd party zoom lenses (and two Nikon primes) - partly because of a better relation between...

The Sigma is great. For me (also owning the 1.8/35 and the 1.8/50) it would definitely be choice A. I also own the Tamron 70-300 VC. So I do recommend waiting a bit till you can afford that over...

If the wide end and low light is important for you the LX7 might be worth a look. Probably worse high iso than RX100 but estimated similar like P7700 and LX7 has f 1.4 and equivalent of 24mm at the...

That sounds indeed tempting, however as a sum stil quite expensive ;-(Best regards, Matt

It would work as a 2,8 75-300 regarding light and field of view and like a 4.0 75-300 regading DOF - and I would buy it even with the size of the 70-200 :-)We can praise Pentax for their - even...
