Hi

I want to get a lens with more reach. The Sigma 55-200 seems quite cheap but I can't find a review anywhere. Does anyone have this lens or know where theres a review??

Thanks

thanks Justine - had seen those but they are really only press releases rather than reviews.

They also do a 18-55mm, which would be much wider than my 28-80mm. They do them in a pack. They are cheap and the F stops don't look so good, but then I never really use the extremem arpertures. The key thing for me would be how quick they are. Don't need to be lightening quick - but need to be able to take picks of moving objects without too much hassle....

Sorry, wrong lens.

I'm looking for reviews on this lens now, as well as the 18-55 lens because the camera I am thinking of buying (Nikon D100) is being offered with these 2 lenses as a package deal. Help? I can't seem to find any reviews anywhere!
