Re: Sigma 70-200mm f2.8

Hello Matt,

I have the 70-200 F2.8 and it's a great lens....now i mainly photograph birds and hardly ever use this lens i've had it nearly a year and used it only for a Wedding shoot and wanted something below the 70 end......Then Autumn is when i used it most for Macro work with Fungi using extension tubes and was pleased with the results..

With your 100/300 you have the range covered just missing 2 stops, does two stops warrant £ 640.00 ...... hhhmmmmmmmmmmm.

Whats meant by Street photography and what animals do you want to get ?
Whats your preference regarding images at the moment ?

I'd look at Canon EF 28-105 F3.5-4.5 USMII £ 174.00
Or maybe Sigma 28-70 F2.8 EX DG £ 206.99

And then get a 1.4x convertor and even some extension tubes and still have change left over...

Mick..
