[QUOTE="markyboy.1967, post: 1867423, member: 69361"] If your taking about the 120-300 then its superb.Its very sharp throughout but i love it at around f6.3-7.1. I ALWAYS have a Sigma 1.4tc attached and cant see any difference without. Its heavy though if you arent used to a longish lens but you do get used to it. It will take a 2 x tc but i have never used one and im sure the pic quality would suffer as it would with 100% of other lenses. I have had loads of pics using the zoom feature where others have missed out. I wouldnt even swap for the Nikon 300 AFS as i really need that zoom. Its quick to focus using my D300.. Only negative point would be as with all Sigma lenses is the coating start to peel although i have a lens coat on mine so it shouldnt get any worse. [/QUOTE]
