A whole new perspective on the world, April 19, 2006
Reviewer: John Stricklen
I have never had a lens wider than 28mm, which is not bad on 35mm but is
not very wide at all on digital. This lens is wonderful - it is opening
whole new worlds for me. The build quality and optical quality are
outstanding. I would definitely recommend this lens for a great wide
angle.

Reviewer: H. BROADUS "bulldog"
A very high quality superwide lens that operates perfectly with my D70. If
indoor or landscape photography are your passions, then this is the gem to
get ! Focus is completely sharp anywhere between 10-20mm and the best
thing about it......it's priced sooooo right !!!!! Try it, you'll love it
!

Better then I expected!!!, August 18, 2005
Reviewer: Sam "S John"
This lens was something that I was not going to buy. I tried it out and
found that the range was incredible and the quality was what you expect
from Sigma. It was worth it for me!!! Worked perfect on my D70!!!
