I have decided to stick with just one camera format. In so I have sold off all my Canon kit and selling off all my Nikon kit. But now I would like to fill a gap in my A mount lens bank. I am after a fast telephoto in A mount mostly for sports photography. The options I have found so far are:
Tokina AT-X 80-200 f2.8
Tokina AT-X Pro 80-200 f2.8
Sigma 70-200 f2.8 APO
Sigma 70-200 f2.8 APO HSM
Sigma 70-200 f2.8 APO HSM OS ( really OS on Sony?)
Sigma 75-200 f2.8-3.5
Tamron 70-200 f2.8 ( no idea what all the variant codes indicate ?)
Minolta 80-200 f2.8
Minolta 70-200 f2.8 SSM
Minolta 200 f2.8
Minolta 70-210 f4
Sony 70-200 f2.8 SSM
Sony 70-200 f2.8 SSM II
Does any one have any experiences with these? I know the one I would like to have the most the Sony 70-200 f2.8 SSM II but sadly there rather expensive even used. I don't know if I should buy a cheap lens to tide me over until I can afford the Sony or buy a mid range lens that can probably do everything the Sony can at a fration of the cost. I actually really fancy giving the Tokina a go. What would you do?
Thanks
