I used to own a Sigma 70-300. I HATED it. Absolutely the worst lens I've
ever owned. I will never buy another Sigma lens, and not just because of
that one lens. I've tried a variety of Sigmas, and the only one I ever
liked was the 105mm macro.
More importantly, shouldn't the person who dropped the lens be buying you
the replacement?

Subject: Pentax FA 80-320 vs Sigma 70-300mm 4.0-5.6
Hi
I'm new here, although I did receive this back a few years ago. I
have a question.
I have used the Pentax FA 80-320 for a few years. I loaned it out
and the borrower dropped it, rendering it useless.
Now I need to replace it - for less money than I would prefer to
spend. How do you people think it compares with the Sigma 70-300
f4-5.6? Is there a different lens to consider in the under-$250 price
range?
Many thanks,
Tony
