    Re: Which lens 28-300 or 70-300

    Thanks for the advice. I have a limited budget right now trying to set up an studio and I was looking at the sigma 28-300 lens and was trying to figure out if it was the lens to go with or if I should go with a 70-300. I had a 70-300 with my older film camera and it did not work on the rebel so I had to sell it. I loved it but was a bit of a pain for some nature photography where I can go from macro to wide angle in the space of a few frames.

    Personally, I wouldn't cut corners on optics. Especially not if I plan to sell my photo services. You still haven't said how much you plan to spend. But if you want to invest in something with excellent quality that you won't want to replace in a few months, go with the 70-200. It will blow away any 70-300mm lens.
