basically i have a sigma 55 - 200 that came with my d50 as part of a package with the other lens being the nikon 18 - 55 kit
wanting a touch more reach but being on a budget im thinking of bidding to try and get a cheap replacement for the 55 - 200 and hopefully flog it for a few pennies.
the common cheapo lenses i come across are
SIGMA 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG MACRO
and
NIKON 70-300mm f4/5.6 G
while the sigma has macro features im not impressed with the focusing speed of the 55 - 200 i currently have and this makes me lean towards the nikon (yeah i know at this end of the range its not going to be blindly fast either)
any comments?
