    I can always count on you ,Oren to leave comments!!! I know it was kind of a meaningless comparison(except DOF), but thought it was kinda cool anyways. You have to admit, though, at 1.4 the sigma is pretty darn sharp. I was actually surprised at how sharp the 24-70 was at 2.8!! And these taken at outer focus points...

    I like the first one better it has a more dreamy look to it, thanks to f1.4.[|-)] Anyway, thats why my screen name is Fast Glass, because I love 50mm primes!

    I tried 2 different Sig 50's. Sent the first one back because of the front focusing issue , then had to send the 2nd to get calibrated. It came back very very useable at 1.4. I love the look and feel to it now, and it hits focus 95% of the time(probably user error on the other 5%!!). A fantastic lens!! Thanks for the comments.
