No worse than my hasty iPhone snaps yesterday
Either way that will get peeps
I'm looking to invest in a 70-200 2.8 but I'm torn between the Canon non stabilised ( its cheaper than the is version ) and the Sigma !
Going to have to wait a while after having the cam belts done on the car

See my photo above. I have the Sigma and love it. Even on my 400D portrait results are amazing. Coupled to the 650 35mm it makes a mean machine! I got it when i was managing a Cash Converters. One of my staff who knew nothing about photography paid €50 for it!

£50.00.....Bargain
Not sure if you saw my post a few above but like you I now have a Sigma 70-200 f2.8 that I bought off a member on one of the photography forums I belong to
Paid a wee bit more than £50.00 for it mind
Here's a picture I took of one of my cats with it the other day.



It will spend most of its life as a short telephoto shooting motor sports when my Sigma 120-300 F2.8 is too long, or my arms can't take it any more
