Sigma make some excellent lenses nowadays and this is one of them. Rumour has it that the identical specification Leica 24-70mm F2.8 zoom lens is actually manufactured by Sigma.
I owned a Vivitar zoom lens for my Olympus OM2 SLR in the early 1980's. I cannot remember the lens's specification and at the time I thought that the performance was pretty good. Vivitar was an American brand name but their lenses were made by a variety of Japanese manufacturers.
Today top specification zoom lenses are very close to top specification prime lenses in terms of performance and many middle of the road kit zoom lenses are excellent performers.
