I'm looking for a lens to take pictures at my daughter's basketball games and was looking at the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 HSM lens. I'm wondering if anybody has this lens and what they think of it. Especially if anybody is using it for indoor sports. If there are other suggestions, I'd be open to hearing those also. I've done some testing with my other lenses, and I think the 24-70mm range is what I'm looking for.
I was also looking at the Tamron 28-75mm lens (it's half the price of the Sigma), but I think I would rather spend the extra to get the quiet (faster?) focusing of the Sigma.
Also, I was looking in the lens database, but can't find that particular lens. Is this a sign that the lens is not popular and I should stay away from it?
