Kind of hard picking between this and the sigma trio. Thoughts?

For portability, you can’t beat this lens. It’s sigma trio in one. If you don’t currently own any one of the trios, the buy this one. You won’t regret it.

Is the a five year warranty like the photo says or a 6 year warranty as written on the product page?

If you're buying from an authorized USA dealer (like us) then it's a 6 year USA warranty.
