The Sigma Lens Club- All lenses

I am looking at the Sigma 50-500mm F/4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM Lens for Pentax SLR, it has built in Anti- Shake, thats kind of redundant as my K10D has anti shake built in isn't it. Is that a waste of money, what lense should I be looking at in the 800mm area?

Got any more 50mm 1.4 images, anyone? Starting to lust for one of these...

Here I'm using my Sigama 1:2.8 macro 50mm. Both photos are of the same "Amaryllis" flower. Oh, and that's Bob lurking in the backround

I hope you don't mind two snapshots, I was playing with 50-150 in the living room and testing minimum focus distance on my usual model

Went yesterday to an international motor show to shoot their babes. Used the Siggy 50-150/2.8 HSM II exclusively. All shot without any flash, at ISO800 in my K200D. Enjoy!!

Check out my Flickr site if you want to see more photos of the event and at a larger size

Those are top notch. If you had posted those shots in this thread... "https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-slr-lens-discussion/128045-guess-lens.html" - no doubt everybody be picking their favorite prime.
