  Can anyone tell me if there are two types of Sigma 24-70 2.8 lenses? I have seen
  some for sale at 299 and some for 999 there doesnt seem to be anything different
  about them, no extra letters or anything, I am stumped!

  Is that the only difference Chris? Seems a lot of money for a little motor,
  would the optics be the same?

  i am not expert with sigma lenses,but in the cheaper version doesnt have ELD lens (what ever this mean) :-), different max magnification
  IMO different lens :-)
