I am just moving from Canon to Nikon, probably a d90 or d300.
are there any problems with older sigmas on these bodies? thinking 24-70 f2.8.
Thanks
Ray

If you have existing lenses that fit your canon then they won't fit the nikon without an adapter which will potentially hurt image quality.

Bit of an odd move. But yeah nikon mount sigmas should be as good as sigmas ever are (which is variable).

Not sure if you're trying to fit your Canon-mount Sigmas onto a Nikon, or s/h Nikon-mount Sigmas onto a Nikon.

Out of interest, why did you decide to jump over the fence to Nikon?

A friend of mine is a full time pro and allows me access to his lenses, which are Nikon so I swapped.
only odd bit is the lens goes on the wrong way.
cheers
