I know you guys are probably getting tired of all these lens questions :)

Here I go....

I am considering 2 lenses. I put 3 of my lenese up on ebay for sale to buy a 70-200 F4 L. I was doing some searching to get a good price on a used one when I came across the Sigma 70-200. Its a 2.8 so its faster and comes with a tripod ring. They are running pretty close in price. The Sigma is used at about what the Canon L glass is new on B and H. What do you think? I am leaning twoard the Canon, but the sigma being the better value is just to tempting to ignore.

the canon will hold it's price better...but I have heard that the Sigma is very nice lens. they did not have one of these in stock when I went shoping and I wound up with a 100-400 L and a 200mm 2.8 L so I have my bases covered.

Thanks. I think I made a good choice in the 70-200L F4. It looks sharper then the 2.8 in that review at 200MM
