They are two different lenses; Sigma makes a fixed-maximum-aperture 10-20mm f/3.5 AND a 10-20mm f/4-5.6 -- the former is a couple hundred bucks pricier, and it's the one being discussed here. That one has an 82mm, filter thread.

I didn't even realize there was another...I was talking about the Sigma 10-20 F4-5.6. Most of the time, almost all of the time, I use it at 10mm. I've always said I would be just as happy with a 10mm prime. So the variable aperture doesn't bother me, and the lens was only around $450 when I bought it a few years back.
Note that this is also an EX lens...Sigma's higher end line.

But the f/4-5.6 has a 77mm filter. It's the other one that's 82mm... Both of them are EX lenses...

| I remember looking at both before I purchased and thought the IQ was a hair better on the slower lens. Grated they were so close it was more likely within standard variation from lens to lens. |
