Sigma AF 50-200 OS HSM Zoom request for feedback
I am interested in purchasing the new Sigma 50-200 mm OS HSM lens. I need a light weight zoom in that focal range. I'd like to know if it's any good. I just read David's review of the Sigma 18-250 mm OS HSM lens. I was impressed by the review. I am tempted to buy the Sigma 18-250, because it is full...
