Have the lens, have used it a fair bit.  The speed and constant aperture were 
the draws for me.  
It's pretty much been replaced as the body dweller by a 12-60.  The focusing 
speed, size, and results of the 12-60 belay it's mid-level grade placement.
 
Had good success with the Sigma, but the Zuiko is a better fit with the 4xx/5xx 
bodies.  
Now the Sigma 50-500 in 4/3 mount....   Park me anywhere on the Oregon Coast 
and I'm happy.

Hi Everyone,

Anyone here got or used the Sigma Lens 18-50mm F/2.8 EX DC Macro ?

I'm looking for a good lense to use on my E but I really want
something that will give me similiar to what I'm use to on my OM's.

And I still dont know why Olympus havent produced something like
the 35-80mm F2.8 for the 4/3's system. Surely there must be a market
for a lense like that.

Cheers
Ian Manners
