I have that sigma 18-50 2.8-4.5 lens and its pretty good. Much better build quality than the canon 18-55 (since its in the same price range) and the 2.8 at 18mm is pretty good. definitely not as good as a 18-50 2.8

No it isn't. It may focus kind of close, but not macro. It's pretty much the same as the canon 18-55 kit lens except a 3rd stop (is it a 3rd stop from 3.5 - 2.8? I don't remember if it full or 3rd or whatever.) brighter and much better build quality. It also doesnt physically zoom in and out, the lens housing thing stays in the same place and the elements move inside of it.
yeah its not a macro lens

np. You might also want to check out used 17-50 2.8s. They can go for as little as $300. Much better optics and build quality than this thing. Also I might be selling mine to upgrade to a 17-50 (my 18-50 2.8-4.5)
Also again, lol, look at the sigma 17-70 2.8-4. It's faster at 50mm and zooms further. It's only $300-400.
I wish I hadnt gotten the 18-50, I always wish i had gotten the 17-70 sicne now i need something to fill in the 50-70 gap (thinking maybe gonna buy a used 28-135 now for that extra zoom).
