Hi Benjammer, using telelens at high apertures is not a realistic option. Even f/5.0 is sometimes to slow for low light/fast moving object situations. This doesn't mean that Sigma 70-300 APO2 is a bad lens. On contrary, it outperforms similary priced OEM telezooms.

Besides the colours I Think the cheap lens might be winning at f22, but of course expencive seems better for everything else, which will definetly be more commonly used.
