from New York Camera & Vi Summary: At tge time I purchased this lense Sigma was producing AF Nikon lenses. This was the era when Sigmas in Nikon AF mount focused in the "Nikon Direction".
At the same time I purchased this lense, I opened a Nikop shipping box in my friends camera shop and removed a box containing a factory frsh 20/2.8 AF Nikon and it had a Sigma rear cap. I also bought it. Strengths: Optically an incredible lense in resolution and contrast Color blows me away, Very Leica like in clarity of transmission. Metal construction in ZEN finish is easier to grip than plastic Nikon barrel. Weaknesses: Noisy AF, speed on both my N90s bodies is fine, slower on my wifes N8008s and even my F100. I have observed many mechanical focus lenses Focus slower on F100.
