The Sigma 10-20mm question.. ! - DPChallenge Forums

So I was reading the specs on this lens and it says

"NOTE: HSM lenses, while able to manually focus with all Nikon F-mount cameras, will autofocus ONLY with the following cameras- F6, F5, F4s, F100, N90s, N90, N80, N75, N70, N65, D1 & D2-series, D50, D70, D100, Pronea 6i, and Pronea S (or newer camera models). With other models, HSM or AF-S lenses must be focused manually. This is the same limitation as Nikon's own AF-S lenses."

I am assuming it WILL autofocus with the D300 as well?

So I really WANT this lens, its been sitting in my cart at B&H for a few weeks. Its at $499 plus shipping now, isnt that a great deal? Our local camera shop has it a $689 right now PLUS tax...

Did you check out the equipment section on DPC for that lens? Sigma 10-20 for Nikon

metatate and

hotpasta both use it on a D300, there are probably others as well, I just checked the first two.

YEah I saw it used a bunch on the 300, just wanted to do an absolute double check first!! :) I am pretty sure it DOES af on the d300, but it never hurts to ask right?

I have that lens and the D300, and it works perfectly fine. No problems autofocusing. You'll love the lens!

This is a lens I've been drooling over as well (the Canon version)... Oddly it's $499 at my local shop - you almost never see the local guys competing with the Internet guys. Good thing you checked, anyway. Enjoy it, and post pics!! =D
