Sigma 18-50 f2.8 (Nikon mount)
Quite impressed with this lens, going by the examples I have seen.
Here are some awesome photos taken with it and the D80:
All taken at f2.8.
For comparison, here's one taken with the D300 and 24-70 f2.8 Nikkor:
All taken by flowsnow who I found whilst browsing the web
I know we'd really need to see the images full size, but from that and comments/reviews I've heard about the lens, it seems like a lot of bang for your buck!... so I am thinking about getting it as flip knows when I'll be able to afford the Nikkor ones

Considering they are third party, Sigma lenses are fantastic and well worth every penny! I think they can quite often be over looked in favour of first brands such as Nikon Canon ect.
