Picked up a bargain...
Discussion
Through a bit of luck, I've managed to pick up a Sigma 75-300 f4-5.6 APO Macro zoom, in very good nick, for £20! :D
First impressions, it seems to be pretty good, much nosier than my 18-70 (D70 kit lens) when focusing, but not that much slower, the only thing that doesn't seem to work is flash, ie slow-synch, rear curtain etc, all else seems fine.
I've just got to get used to handling a long lens now, and my tripod technique could do with a bit of practice...
Anyone know when these lenses were produced? I've searched high 'n low on t'internet, but can't find any info!
nevertheless, very happy, could not ask more for £20! :D
