Adorama have it for $499.95 US. The Sigma 12-24mm was bought here from Birddog for $895 and it’s US price is $669.99 - so by interpolation I would suspect the price to be around the $650 - $700 Aus.

Snooty? Downright Rude and ignorant to boot! Did you see the post he was taken to ask on? And how he hasn't posted again since? I think the lens performed well for the conditions and price. I think I moght give it a go on my day off.
