No, I didn't think there was an OS one for Pentax?
Yes Sigma made the 70-200mm f/2.8 DG EX OS HSM for a few years which made it the last version.

Have been away for a few days and took the K-1 and a few lenses. Went to a local bird hide, put the camera on the shelf in front of me with the 150-450mm attached, turned round to get something out of my bag and heard a loud bang as the camera and lens hit the bench I was sitting on, followed by another as it then fell again onto the floor. Looks like I caught them with my jacket as I turned.

Camera is actually unmarked and so is the lens and everything seems to work just fine but I have popped a strut on the rear screen. Looks like there is a fix on Pentaxforums, just building up the courage.

- Sigma 70-200/f2.8. HSM version, the last one. Minor paint issues; the 2 of "2.8" and a mark on the hood. No box but both caps. Sharp as hell and fast to focus. £400.

This is the OS version?

Super price for this lens - same optical formula as the FA version (I believe), if I hadn't recently overpaid for an FA20 I would have bought this copy
I recently found the box for my FA version which I find quite strange as I sold it a couple of years ago.

Replied,

On reading my first post I should add that it comes with the AA battery tray as well as the one for the D-Li90.
