<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1052767, member: 27832&quot;]To get back to the OP&#039;s original question, I picked the Canon 100mm, because I got a good deal on a used one.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve shot with an original Digital Rebel and a 20D.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve used four Sigma lenses -- the 18-50/2.8, the 28-300, the 20/1.8, and the 10-20 ultrawide. I&#039;ve been reasonably happy with the 10-20, but all four have had focusing issues, the 20/1.8 is terrible until you stop down to f/5.6 or so (so what&#039;s the point of having an f/1.8 lens?), and the 28-300 had to go back for repair because the aperture control stopped working.</p><p><br /></p><p>I regularly use the Canon 100mm macro and the 100-400L telephoto. Both are head and shoulders above any of the Sigma glass I&#039;ve got. I wasn&#039;t terribly happy with the 18-55 that came with my Rebel, and my Canon 50mm/1.8 isn&#039;t really outstanding, but in general I&#039;ve been MUCH happier with Canon than Sigma. (I&#039;ve also got a Sigma 500 flash and a Sigma ring-flash; in both cases, they were much cheaper than the Canon equivalents, but I&#039;m not sure they work as well.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
