Default Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM
Does anyone have a review on this lens (Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM ) I am looking for a "walk around" lens. Any quotes or ideas would be welcomed. I already have the Sigma wide angle and their 70-200mm F2.8 and am very happy with the. What I am looking for is a fast lens for walking around when I go on holidays. Taking head shots ect.
I am shooting with a Nikon D90.
Appreciate anything,
Thanks,
Al

Never mind - I thought I had found a lab test at Photozone, but it's an earlier version (no HSM and f2.8-4.5 rather than f/2.8-4).
