Photography Addiction?

Hi my name is steven, and i am a camera-oholic.

people warned me before i bought my first slr that once i owned it, i would always be looking at more lenses to add to my arsenal. well, this is the latest present the man-in-brown delivered.

its a sigma 120-300 f/2.8 lens (picture shown mounted to my nikon d300)

now i just need to find time to get out in the woods to play with it.

(please forgive the poor quality of this photograph, i had to use a co-workers point and shoot )

Great lens. I have its big brother (the 300-800mm f5.6), which is as good or better than similar offerings by Nikon and Canon. My camera habit is not helping me get my Xterra equipped!

Been considering replacing my Canon 70-200 f/4 L with that very lens ... look forward to reading how you like it and seeing sample shots. The 70-200 is a stellar lens, so it's hard to justify parting with it just for an extra stop and a bit more reach. But my Sigma 150mm f/2.8 Macro is also tack sharp with outstanding IQ, so if that's any indication of how the 120-300 f/2.8 performs then I shouldn't miss the 70-200 much.
