Default Sigma forced to admit lens is grossly overpriced

"Very popular lens" needs sales "incenting?" More like, silly Sigma
tries to charge what Nikon and Canon do for a zoom and gets kicked in
the face by indifference. Given the choice, new Sigma or used Nikon
70-200mm, guess which most Nikon owners will choose?

Sigma drops price for 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM lens
Sigma has announced a price drop for its 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM
lens to $1,399, down from $1,699. The company says 'the reason the
price went down is to remain competitive in this category and incent
sales for this very popular lens.



Sigma?

Just guessing here.
