Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 Macro HSM

[Shak]

I'm after the above but so far I've only found one or two places that sell it. The below shop has been used by a friend before, so I know they're reliable.

Onestop Digital don't do the HSM version. Any other shops to look at?

Just looked at their website. They have the non-HSM. I'm after the HSM version, which isn't listed on the site.

Hang on:

18-50mm f/2.8 EX DC Macro (Not For Nikon D40 or D40X)

Then:

Inner Focus System
The lens is equipped with an inner focusing system. The non-rotating front lens element makes the lens suitable for using its petal-type lens hood and circular polarising filters.

The HSM uses 72mm filters, and non-HSM uses 67mm. That webpage states it as 72mm yet says the lens is not for the D40x, which needs lenses to be HSM for auto-focussing.

Check with buyacamera.co.uk on the phone, they list 67mm as filter size but link to the HSM version on Sigma's site. They have their stock shipped straight from Sigma so you should get the latest version...
