This can possibly be the best upgrade from your nikon kit lens if you wanna jump into event and indoor photography thanks to the wide aperture that let you keep the ISO low. Suitable also for landscape, even thought I would rather look for a wide angle vintage prime (cheap, great quality and sharp).
The Sigma 17-50 is a considerable upgrade in terms of quality. Build quality feels much better than the Nikon Kit lens and it is definetely sharper with much better performance as regards colors and fringing.
The lens feature a good optical stabilizer that gives you more than two stops of advantage. When shooting video, this is a saving grace.
