    New Sigma Digital Lenses
    Does anyone know the scoop on the new Sigma Digital lenses 70-300 F4-5.6 DG Macro and Sigma 18-125 F3.5-5.6 SLD for Digital lenses? Camera Express is offering them online for 599.99 and 799.00 respectively. I can't find any reviews. Are they that new and good?

    Hey Red,
    I have the 70 to 300 DG (and APO) and have been very happy with it. I think the price you are looking at is high though. Check out:

    p.s. This is a full size lens and can thus fit on film cameras (or digital with full size CCDs). What is digital about the "DG" is an extra coating that takes out some of the reflection coming back from the CCD.
