    I think a Sigma 400mm 5.6 APO is a good tele lens. it's hard to get one for $270, but it's really close.

    Brebdan, no, I have not used that one. but I saw some pictures taken with this lens on the internet, it was really nice.and if you check out the other forums online, people gave very good reviews for this lens. I tried to bid on ebay for a mint condition one about 6 weeks ago before I bought my Canon 400mm 5.6. I didn't win, and I remember the winning bidder would pay $443.85 for it.


    there is one on ebay now selling for $360 shipped, after all the possible savings(bing cash, ebay buck, credit card cash back), it's going to be about $320.40(total 11% off) that's why I said it's really close. here is the link

    update


    Bing cash will be end on 07/30/10, and I'm not convincing anybody buy anything from ebay or use any cash back program, you are at your own risk.
