I was just wondering if anyone uses the sigma 200mm lens with their Evolt? I was just wondering how the pics compare to a zukio. I would like a bigger lens and the zukio is quite more expensive. I am just learning my E-300 and was wondering the quality diff. between the two. If someone has the lens and can post a pic or two I could see I would GREATLY appreciate it.

Thanks,
Tina =)

NOTE these links are to full resolution pictures about 5mp EACH. I suggest you download them and examine them in a photo editor.

ncmoody, are those both on a tripod? Because one the exposere is blown out. Just wondering if you could take a picture @200 with same exposure. That sigma lens looks a bit soft but I would imagine thats what you get :)

Hi Cid, the name is Neill.
Yes on a tripod in my back garden.
They were taken quickly to answer a very similar question on an other forum I used to frequent over here in England.
I was much more interested in the brick detail than getting a balanced exposure.
