I bought this lens in lieu of the similiar pentax (cost concerns) and I
really like it. The f/2.8 capability is really great for snapping your
subject out of the background, and the price was low enough that I could pick
up a Pentax 300mm f/4.5 ED IF lens in addition. Seems sharp to me & AF
speed is reasonable.
I believe photodo.com did rate the pentax and the sigma the same.
Also, I've had no problems with lens<->camera communication, like some of the
earlier Sigmas.
