Wow, 3 retailers over £100 cheaper than every other retailer, makes you wonder how/why?
No idea but 2, Park and Clifton Camera, I have spent good money with and would recommend either to anyone.

I'd imagine a new one is coming with that scale of price drop, makes it a bit of a no-brainer as a walkaround zoom now.
Is it any better than the highly rated Tamron 17-50 (Non VC)?

I was going to ask the same thing re the Tamron 28-75 f2.8 which I already use?
In fact a general comment/question regarding these lenses (Sigma/Tamron) vs the vastly more expensive Nikon 24-70 and 28-70, is this a real cost/quality significance or essentially are they 2-4 times 'better'?

Its very subjective but I borrowed one to take to Paris and I was very impressed with the IQ of the lens if not the heft!
The VC was very handy and I think v the non-VC Tamron its very good, I'd probably have gone for the Tammy if it was £330 and the Sigma still at its £450 price but for the same price I reckon the Sigma is the better buy,.
Yes true the new 18-35mm f1.8 is gonna be a premium Lens and doubt its RRP will be below £499. Need a general walkabout lens for my D7000 and was looking at the other Sigma the 17-70mm f2.8/4 for £249 from Clifton where everyone else are selling for around £349?? Anyway now that the 17-50mm f2.8 is around £309 from 3 retailers then its a no brainier I think to consider it over the other sigma I mentioned. Will check out some reviews.
Prices for the the 18-35 1.8 are $799 from B&H plus shipping and taxes so around £650-700 here I'd say.
Hi there,
I note a few people have moved from the D3100 to the D7000 - which is a jump I'm considering. My reasons are to get a focus motor in the camera so I can upgrade my glass, which is mostly kit lenses.
Question for you if you've made the jump: Did you notice any discernible improvement in image quality on making the jump - or did you just get the additional functionality.
Thanks for your reply
If i remember correctly (maybe i'm wrong and is the D3200), the D3100 and D7000 have the same sensor ....... so therefor image quality should be the same unless both camera use different lenses.
What you get from D7000 improve over D3100 is the body quality, bigger (better grip) and more control over the camera.

Can anyone shed some light on the following please?
My shutter has 'begun' to double click when impress it. I say begun but I don't actually know if it's always done it. I'm out now in a cemetery and I've just noticed it. Anything to worry about? Thanks

I've had a couple of occasions when it's taken two shots for only "one" press, but then I'm very light with the shutter release so it was probably two very gentle presses.
What shutter speed where you using at the time? Could just be that it was slow (ie, around 1/50 or under) because that sounds different.
Can anyone recommend any sensor cleaning products for the d7000, I'm looking at this pack, anyone used them before?
