I took a gamble on a Sigma 135-400 APO DG that was on ebay - could not afford to go the full 'Bigma' route, but am hoping that this will give me some options on longer than 300mm throw...

Took it out for a stroll around local airport last weekend - this was the best capture of the afternoon

Thanks for the feedback - this lens does seem to have some mixed reviews, but as it was fairly low priced it seemed worth a chance.
