Yep, it's the new version of the lens. 150 is hopeful, but 200 might be realistic. You never know I guess.

Hey,

it's a long shot, but there's an auction on ebay link for a Sigma 17-70.

I'm after one of them myself, but the seller only ships to UK so hopefully you might end up with it for a reasonable amount.

No offers, I guess then?

Hehe, well I was hoping for a bit lower price

This one was a mint copy for about as much as I would be willing to pay for a condition similar to this one.

Thanks woodworm, I've seen that offer and the thing that bothers me is that there is a lot of reports for Tamrons having some FF/BF issues. Since I'm not in the UK (Slovenia, EU), exchanges could prove to be difficult.

Buying used from someone on this forum seems a more reliable option to me...or am I naive?

I'm possibly in the market for one of the 2 mentioned lenses. If someone is looking to sell, please contact me with their offers.

Just a note: the Sigma mentioned is without the HSM and OS.

Thank you.

Thanks all. Seems like the Expedition 5 and Flipside 400 are the bags to look at. I'll see how much they go for over here.

Thanks for more feedback. Can anyone confirm though if I can fit both the Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 and the Bigma in one backpack (either Expedition 5 or Velocity 10).

@greynolds999: thanks for the tip. I have heard the same horror stories and take it off right after being done with it.

The Kiron has now been sold through a local forum. Taking offers on the Takumar and Tokina.
