It's a very nice lens. I just posted a couple of PESO pics that I shot with it. These are both at f8. The first is at 200mm, the second at 160mm. I also use this lens for walkarounds when I want a little more reach than a normal length. It autofocuses very nicely and is quite compact for this focal length. I focused it manually here, because the water spray and foreground rope can sometimes fool the autofocus. I've only owned one Sigma lens, a 17-35 and found it no match for any of my Pentax glass. I replaced it with the DA 16-45. However, I don't know anything about the two Sigma lenses you've named here.
