Thanks Guys for replies and comment re Sigma lens. Will just have to find its best operating range as budget can run for another lens at this time.

I've said this before and I'm going to say it yet again......my advice is look for a used Pentax 80-320, the lens is (IMHO) very underated. Even though I now have the Bigma 50-500 I would not dream of parting with the Pentax, and with the K10D I can often get away with shooting at f8 which as we all know is the (alleged) optimum aperture for best results.
What sort of price should I be paying for one of these lenses. If I can find one that is. I use a K10D also.

Can I assume that the advice applies to the Sigma 70-300 on a K10d
