After much deliberation, I have decided to rejig my lenses again - so for sale is my Sigma 50-150mm lens in excellent condition with only a few scuffs on a small area of the zoom ring (have tried to show this in one of the pictures).

Lens has taken great pictures since I have had it (around 9-10 months) but after looking through my focal length chart I made from EXIF data, its just not getting the use it deserves with me spending most of my time in wide angle land.

Unfortunately, I can't find the box for it! But it comes with a black Sigma EX padded case with strap, lens hood and user manual thingy + a 67mm Hoya UV filter which has been on it its entire life.

SOLD

Would this sigma work with a TC and how is the IQ for this lens at the 500mm range? Does anyone know please?
Thank you

Wow, wasn't expecting so many replies so soon!

At the 150mm end its tack sharp by f/4 and f/2.8 is great from 50-135mm. I have used this with a 1.7x Promaster Teleconverter which works well and retains the HSM autofocus. The manual focus override is full-time (similar to pentax quick-shift).

Oh well, no takers?

Anyone have anything to trade? looking for a Pentax 16-50mm to replace my Sigma 17-70mm which will be up for grabs once the 50-150mm has gone.

I have listed the 50-150mm on ebay but can always take it off if someone is interested (save on the final value fees!).

No problems Pete, I'll be sticking it in the Classifieds section as soon as the 50-150 has sold (and a suitable replacement has arrived from SRS for the 17-70), and I'll put first refusal on it for you.

Cheers, Brian.
