"When I upgraded to the Pentax K20D I didn't buy a kit lens. I purchased this lens instead and have been very happy with the purchase. I just visited my family on vacation, and because of the short trip took only this lens. I found it was all I needed for the trip. The pictures came out very sharp, …" Read Full Review »

Used it on a cloudy day in Issaquah, WA, at a garden show tour and was pleased with the results . . . rich, accurate colors and sharp macros. Used it last weekend for a 50th Wedding Anniversary even …" Read Full Review »

Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC Macro Lens for Pentax Digital Cameras Review

Excellent and Versatile Lens

★★★★★

5.0

"I purchased this lens for my Pentax K10D, and it works quite well. The zoom range is just right for most applications and the semi macro performance is handy. Performance wise it is very sharp, low CA, low vignetting and low distortions. At 17mm the performance sags a little with some distortion and …" Read Full Review »

Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC Macro Lens for Pentax Digital Cameras Review

Far superior to the kit lens

★★★★★

5.0

"Bulkier and heavier than the 18-50 "kit" lens but thats the price you pay for faster glass and a better zoom range. A great all round standard zoom producing crisp images across the zoom range. It lives on my K10D until I really need the 10-20mm. "
