Er. Is this some sort of joke? The EOS 300 is rarely considered to be a 'professional' camera, let alone a dirt cheap (under $200 US) Sigma zoom lens.

SIGMA 28-135 is a great lens, but only for its price. The best choice, but only in budget zooms

The words (great lens) and (best choice) should have some meaning, If you are refering to a canon 28-105, 24-85,28-135is, or even a nikon 28-105, 24-120, or minolta 24-105. then maybe those words would have some meaning in refering to the budget zoom class. But to use those words for a cheaply constructed 13 element Sigma is a joke.-LB
