Also just an observation, at Brands Hatch I saw nobody with the Sigma 35mm yesterday. A lot with the 24-70 2.8L and the rest were Sigma teles and kit lenses along with the enthusiasts with 100-400 range Ls and Nikkors but saw nobody at all with the Sigma 35 during the pit walks!

For a pitwalk I'd either take my 50 1.4 or 24-105 I reckon. Can't believe how much joy you're still getting out of that lens though 
just with a 50 seems pointless

D) seems to think it has ok to poor bokeh at f2 for anything in the BG when focus subject is 3 metres away so seems it's only really gain is when focusing on things closer than 3 metres. The 100% crop sample on his site shows the optics producing fringed bokeh which looks quite bad!
For the price though I suppose it can't be knocked, f2 and IS as well.
Versatile lens for almost all situations with focus speed to match expectations
