I was looking at both the 24-70 and the 17-55 also.....i bought the sigma 24-60 2.8 for $200 to give it a go....I figured if it didn't work then i could sell it and move on to the next....since i have had it its been great for $200.
Sure its not going to as good as the 24-70, no weather sealing, but its damn close! I get crispy photos that have great color. I got a sharp copy but i think i'm going to send it in to sigma for further lens alignment just to see if it improves at all.
