Only criticism is that it struggles to find focus on my K-m but at f6.3 in a Welsh February I'm not entirely surprised. A tripod is pretty much essential and manual focus is therefore not difficult. Overall, a very nice piece of kit when you have the right conditions.

tempted by the 150-500 though
Excellent price .. personally I have now officially stopped buying any more lenses until the Sigma 120-300mm f2.8.
The 85mm f1.4 does look very good though.
OK Mike - this has been seen and noted

Sigma 17-70mm f2.8-4.5
highly recommended. the macro function is great too. You can almost focus on the front element. Great for street abracts.
I've been out and shoot about 800 drive by snaps with the very lens today.

Who needs one of those when one has an FA*85
Ummm, perhaps the people who don't have a FA* 85mm?
They're missing out....

I agree, 127.5mm FOV is odd. Maybe you could get an adapter for the D3 and then it will work as designed?

For Nikon and Canon.
Pentax and Sony fit were only released a few days ago. (I think).
I'm sure I've seen the 85/1.4 at SRS in the sigma/pentax pages for ages now. I'm eventually going to get one. 2nd K-5 comes first though.
