Has this lens just got a plain barrel? Does it have any lettering, aperture, distance scale etc. It doesn't look to from the photos?

Wondered the same. There are markings just visible in image two on the rear two rings. Have there been any variants other than this link The images above don't show any switches on the lens. Maybe worth some more images for clarity.

This is the 'Contemporary' version so newer optics and fewer markings on the body.
The second image shows the number 70 on the underside of the lens (zoom ring scale)

Damn! I would have bought this if I hadn't just had mine (older model) repaired by Sigma! Repair to zoom mechanism cost £95, so £150 is a steal for this glass.

Thanks. I might have been interested if it had the OS but I think that was on older models.
Is it HSM It doesn't say so?

Yes... it does seem to be the latest Contemporary model. Strange they didn't print it all on the lens.
