SIGMA 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG. I am starting a small project taking photo's of the insides of churches and chapels here in my home county of Derbyshire UK. I want a lens that can cope with low light if needs be and saw this one at a good price. Any advise would be greatly appreciated,

I have that exact lense and compared it with my Nikon 18-200. I know, 2 different lenses, but none the less, I wanted to check out the quality of my Sigma since I picked it up for $150 online.
The Sigma came out just a little ahead of my Nikon in sharpness. At about f4.0 the Sigma is tack sharp all the way to the other end of the f-stop spectrum. Only drawback is the fact that it doesn't have the HSM, so you have the switch the camera to "M" if needed.
Hope this helps
