Thanks all of you who replied. Well, there is only one problem with Sigma 70-200 2.8 beside its price. It is over 1 kg in weight. It would seem to me that I will have to confine myself to focal lengths no longer than 200 mm and actually I may even confine myself further making my 77 ltd the longest lens I would *actively* use.
I have read about Tamron 70-300 and looked at sample images. It is not that much better than FA 80-320 if at all... Several people also reported that it suffers from CA as well, so the sample variation seems to be significant. I am afraid this is going to be a real case of disablement for me.
