Archived from groups: rec>photo>digital (more info?)

I'm in the market for a good versatile 200-300 mm lens for a Canon XTi. Any
recommendations on the canon lens vs the Sigma's. I would like to keep it
under $500.00.

TIA

Zoom or prime? The Canon 70-300mm IS has received good review. I have one and it is great. (But not the 70-300 DO, nor the 75-300mm.) This lens does not have a very large max aperture, but in return it is very light and easy to handle and carry around... and less money.

However, I sold mine after getting the 200mm f/2.8 L prime. It is actually smaller than the zoom, black colored to be less conspicuous. The 70-200/4 works good with teleconverters, but the prime is sharper with them. It worked fantastic in the Smokey mountains doing compressed landscapes. >> Stay informed about: Rebel XTi lens question
