THIS IS OFF TOPIC. Please forgive. For the money please look at the new Tamron as well as the Tokina versions. Between the Sigma and the Nikon, choose the Nikon. The Tamron is the best of the bunch in my opinion and I am not alone in that assessment. Don't take my word. Read some reviews. And it's half the price of the Nikon.
I’d love the new Nikon 70-200 but $2900... First order though the 24-70 and because the Tamron is good and a savings most likely I’d go with Tamron for the Holy Trinity
