I have a SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 EX APO. If the build quality on the 70-200mm is as good, you'll get your money's worth out of it, and maybe a little more.

What do people think of this lens? It looks like I have the opportunity to buy one of these (used) for C$225. It is not the current model. I think it's a few generations old and I do not think it has the "DG" (digital grade) coatings. I cannot seem to find a review online for this model. I have handled the lens though I have not tried it on a body, and it appears to be in very good condition. I already have three telezooms in this range, so I do not absolutely *need* this lens. However, my current telezooms all have issues of one sort or another, which the Sigma might solve. To start I would use it on my K-3, but I am really looking to have a quality full frame telezoom for when I upgrade to a K-1 (or whatever full frame DSLR Pentax/Ricoh will be offering) in a year or two.
