jaakko_laine Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 Evening. I'm wondering if anyone's got their hands on sigma's new DC 18-50? Is it even really out yet? I know that in Germany they're on the lists and can be ordered. Maybe this has been asked a thousand times.. Anyways, the lens seems to be quite cheap, and so within my reach at the moment, does it offer anykind of quality? I know it's useless to compare to L's and others of that class, they're more than ten times more expensive and totally unacceptable alternatives. Thanks for any answers.

maureen_m Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I see that B&H and Adorama both have it listed only as a 2 lens kit for $239:<br><i>Sigma Digital Twin Zoom Kit with<br>18-50mm F/3.5-5.6 Super-Wide Angle<br>&<br>55-200mm F/4-5.6 Telephoto<br>AF Zoom Lenses for Canon EOS AF Digital SLR Cameras</i>.<p>B&H shows it as not yet available, and Adorama's website doesn't show them as unavailable but said on the phone "hopefully 2 or 3 weeks".

nick roberts Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 It's apparantly imminent in the UK, and definately to be sold separately. Well, according to a reputable dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaakko_laine Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 The 17-35 is not what I'm looking for, way too expensive, unfortunately =( And there hasn't been a question about the 18-50 in the relatively near past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
