Go Superwide - in Chicago!

Nothing beats a superwide view of life - broad, spacious, landscaping perspectives are always in vogue. Bigger streetscenes and panoramas are just waiting to be captured.

The Sigma 10-20/4-5.6 HSM DC ($499) is a great buy among the current crop of superwides. It ranks high in sharpness compared to similar Tamron and Nikon zooms - with the Sigma being the wider of the bunch. Let's take this superwide to Chicago and see what we can take in...

The Bean is a huge metallic art form/tourist attraction... intentional distortions are addictive with a superwide. You could shoot here all day!

Architecture is another subject you won't run out of in Chicago. With the Sigma 10-20, keeping the verticals and horizontals straight will create visually enticing scenes without obvious distortion. Getting creative is not hard work with this great optical value.

Yes, Chicago is a great place to go wide - superwide!
