Jealous? I've been on the hunt for a good 100mm. Was going to buy a used 100-L but when I got $350 rebate at the local camera shop, well.......

Thanks for the review. I'd love to give the Siggy a spin. Unfortunately, my Macro lens budget is limited to the one lens I have.

I have a AF Sigma 105, but it's the older non OS version. I still prefer my old MF 105 Dine lens.

Me too, in the sharpness department it is rated the same as the newer model.
