Sigma makes lenses with a variety of mounts. Assuming the lens has a Nikon mount, then yes, it will work fine on the N8008.

You haven't stated which model you have, but generally most SLR's open by pulling upwards on the film rewind crank (the knob on the left side of the top-plate as viewed from behind). If this doesn't work then add the exact model as a comment to my answer and I'll try to give you specific instructions for your model.

If the switches and contacts are dirty that would do it. If that happens the cost of service may exced the cost of buying a used one.
SOURCE: How much $$ was the N8008 with a Nikon 35-135 AF
aha! we have the same cam! my brother gave it to me. i guess its in the $400-$500 range when it came out. AF was pretty new that time.
SOURCE: Loading the N8008 camera
1. Set the film speed manually or DX to do it automatically by holding down the ISO button and turning the command dial.
2. Slide the camera back lock releases toward each other to open the back.
3. Insert the film cartridge on the left.
4. Pull film leader over to the red index mark on the right.
5. Close the back, making sure there's no slack in the film, and the lock releases snapped close.
6. Lightly press the shutter button. The film icon will appear in the LCD panel.
7. Fully depress the shutter button to automatically advance film to frame 1.

I have 3 N8008s bodies and one of them started hanging up in the manner you describe, but only at 1/8000th sec. The reason you can't see through the viewfinder is because the mirror is up. One mine, pressing the shutter release button again brings it down. Some other solutions online suggest weak batteries, but I've ruled that out. It also seems that this is just something that can eventually happen with the N8008/N8008s. It bugs me that this started happening, but I only paid $16 for the camera and I've never, ever taken a photo at 1/8000th.
