Moose,

I have not read extensively on the subject but I have done an overlay of the
two sectional diagrams for the two lenses and they are as best as I can tell
the same. The difference may be in the manufacturing stages, particularly if
they are handled by two different firms or even lines within a factory
perhaps?

I'm not so sure about the Sigma disguise. The Pop Photo review shows it to
have different dimensions and different performance.
