Could someone with a bigma post a photo of it with other lenses? I can't find any at the moment...

I'm considering "upgrading" from the 70-200 2.8 non-IS to the Bigma because I'd prefer something a bit more versatile with a bit more reach. Vertict? I might get the 2.8IS sometime down the line...

This is as close as I could find: click
He has several zoom comparo's on his site. So far, I've been very happy with my Bigma. I was really on the fence between a Bigma and a 70-200 2.8; but the extra zoom was really swaying me.

That looks good! Not that much bigger than the 70-200 at widest then
