There's a macro lens buyers guide in this months "What Camera?" magazine (a freebie we get at work).
Tests the Canon 60mm, Sigma 70mm, Tokina 100mm and Tamron 90mm.
The Sigma comes out tops for macro, by the narrowest of margins against the Canon.
Interestingly the article hints that the performance of the Tamron is better at wider apertures than stopped down, perhaps suggesting it is a good all rounder for portraiture.
