Thanks

Might be worth going for primes if you're wanting speed. Do you have the DA 35 or 50mm lenses? For the wide end, you'd usually stop down anyway so there may be very little need for a f2.8 zoom.
You might also find the DA 50-135 meets your needs depending on budget.

Thanks for that.
The lens is needed to help my Grandson with his GCSE in PE- need some photos of him playing Basketball and a short zoom is the best option.

I'd recommend trying before you buy on both of these - both have quite a few reports of front or back focusing, so always best to be sure you get a good copy and can change or return if needed.
I have both (but not looking to sell either) and both focus well. If your camera allows AF adjustment then that's a good start.

I have a Sigma 18-50 f/2.8 EX if you are interested. I know it is not the same as a 17-50, but what is 1mm between friends...?
If you are interested leave me a PM...
