Oops sorry, I meant the 50-150mm f2.8 HSM II OS version. I remember the specs (although incomplete) were already uploaded to Sigma website. But suddenly gone.

There isnt an OS version kms mount I think. http://www.sigmaphoto.com/sigma-lens-finder-results?page=99

There isnt an OS version kms mount I think. Product Finder - SigmaPhoto.com

They announced it around February 2011 - came up with press release, and display it in their website for some time being.

I'm not sure about the S/K-M mount (or any other mounts).. I'm just wondering why they removed it :dunno:

New Product Announcement: APO 50-150mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM

I find it strange too! I know the HSM II was listed as discontinued while the OS version for C/N mount was listed as new item about a month back. The local distributor were equally clueless when I spoke to them.

Possible that Thai flood affected supplies. Wild guess.

I was reading some of the reviews, not that impressive....esp at 150mm range. Affordable price though.

It would have been a perfect complement with my sal1650 ....

Sony A77 + 16-50 + 50-150 should be enough to keep me happy for now......though I was really tempted by 70-200 G!
