Hello,
Well I have been waiting a long time to get the right lens for the jobs I do. I am inching closer and closer toward making photography a bigger part of my monthly income but am wishing to get some pro quality glass.
Recently I took the communities suggestion and tried a Sigma 70-200 f2.8. Aside from the weight it was a nice lens and gave pretty good results. I'm also looking at getting a every day lens and have been considering the Sigma 17-70 macro. Now before I continue any further let me describe mainly what I shoot.
Nature landscapes, sports photography (Swimming & Hockey) and studio portraits from time to time.
I'm going to have to wait a little while before purchasing hte 70-200 but for a immediate everyday lens that gives me fast focusing, and very sharp do you feel this is the best choice for under 500.00 or have I overlooked another option.
Thanks
