Hey heres a good deal for you people looking for a wider aperture walk around.

I've seen a few threads that lenses like this are recommended (And for good reason)
This is an older version, but arguably the best sigma makes.

This is for Nikon SLR's but i didn't delve deeper to check Canon or otherwise.

Canon's got the same thing for the same price.
Just saying if anyone's interested.

Yeah, I was looking into it.
It was $399 on B&H.
It was either that or the Sigma 18-50/2.8, which is $419 on B&H.
