Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM ELD SLD Aspherical Super Wide Angle Lens

I just ordered a Sigma 10-20mm wide angle lens along with a 16gb SDHC C6 card from Amazon.  I was looking at this lens or the Tokina 11-16 but decided on this due to its range that would fill more "gap" up to my 24-105.  Here is how the items were packed:

















One step inside the box:
















One more step without the wrapper.  I like that it came with a case (though bulky) and a petal lens hood.
















And here is a pic of the "friendly packed 16gb card" that is pre-opened for you so you do not need a razor blade to slice open the package.
















I linked up my new lens to my T1i body and began shooting.  I like the effect that it provides and the speed at which it does it.  I do need more practice with it, but it does a great job getting everything in the picture with minimal pin cushion.  One thing to note is that when I was shooting on aperture priority, it would auto select it a higher ISO leaving dark pics quite noisy.  It does great in good day light.
