Item Description
For sale: Sigma EX DG 70-200 F2.8 HSM II for Pentax. This lens was my first EX glass from sigma a lens that I've kept through different upgrades, from my humble Pentax K5, K5iis, to K3. It has been a great performer through the years. I sold most of my long telephoto lenses (Sigma EX 100-300, Sigma EX 300mm f2.8) with my aps-c bodies, but kept this lens till now.

Aesthetically: The lens is in great condition with little wear on the body, few marks overall.

Optically: the glass is very clean, very little dust inside. It has a small scratch on the front element, about 1-2 mm (as pictured) hard to notice.

Mechanically. Clean oil-free blades, snappy, silent HSM Autofocus on all my APS-c bodies. It will require a firmware upgrade to be used on Pentax K1, it's a free service upgrade from Sigma. Comes with hood, front and rear caps.

Since this is a forum first and foremost, here's an interesting comparison between the Sigma 70-200 f/28 @ 200mm and my DA* 60-200 f4 shot at 250mm on my K10D (notice longer the focus breathing exhibited by the Da, which as many members have noted reaches 250 at infinity, but falls short of that at closer distances to the subject.

Size Comparison:

Focal length comparison:

Sharpness at longer end:
