I got mine from ebay at about $160(inclusive of shipping). the only minus point is that there may be a 2-8weeks wait due to shipment as well as customs clearance. but this lens is really worth every penny spent.

$160 for a beercan is a damn good price man.

the beercan price is roughly as other bro said 300-350 cheapest so far I saw was 250. for the 28-135 not so sure around 400ish i think..
SLR revo has a lot of Sigma lenses for Sony. Even John 3:16 still has some.

Yes bro, the weight of these legendary lenses is a thing to consider if you want a light setup but it's the all metal construction that makes it last and withstand all the usage.

Agree bro. I love the old lenses too.
I had bad experience with the Tokina, hence I am still sticking to the beercan. The Sigma 75-200mm f2.8-3.5 also not bad and seems to be sharper than the Tokina. It's in the old push-pull zoom design and rather compact as compare to the Tokina.

I have opened up a new lens from another brand but with the same range as the beercan,
The lens arrangement is very much similar to beercan. Although some of the equivalent metal parts in beercan were replaced with plastic
Heh. A design copy?

Not really sure. maybe they just based their design on beercan lens
Well, that would be a design copy then! What lens is it?
Agreed, bro. :thumbsup:
I got that old Sigma 75-200mm, really tough and sharp ! ...unfortunately, it does not works with digital cameras now, something about needing a rechip ...which is no longer available.:cry:
