    Xmeda,

    Thank you for the detailed and quick reply!

    Shooting close sports (basketball, volleyball, etc) with my Tamron is the main reason I am looking at the Sigma - particularly this one: Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 II APO DG HSM in padded case. REDUCED + FREE SHIPPING - PentaxForums.com

    The owner says he has had no difficulty shooting on his K-P or K-1. If the autofocus is faster, that is my main interest over the Tamron.

    For birding and wildlife, I have the 150-450, with which I am quite happy.

    Thank you again!

    Hello! Since you seem to have used the Sigma 70-200 HSM II and the Tamron 70-200 f/2.8, I would like to ask a question. I have the Tamron 70-200, which I use mostly for sports and birding. Would you say that your Sigma has faster focusing and has better image quality than the Tamron? I am considering buying the Sigma, but not sure if the additional $ is worth it.
