hey, i'm thinking of getting a tele zoom lens to add to my collection. Right now, i have a 40D (which i JUST upgraded to from a 1000D) with a Sigma 10-20, and 18-50 f2.8.

thinking of one of the following. they're relatively close in price here in the UK.

Sigma 50-150 f2.8
Canon 70-300 f4-5.6 IS
Canon 70-200 f4

the sigma, i've been trying to find some good reviews on it, but can't really. It would compliment my current collection well, because with the other 2, i would lose out between 50-70, which isn't that big a deal. but it's also the fastest lens, but it might not be the sharpest.

i've heard amazing things about the 70-200 f4, but the IS i would get with the 70-300 would help a lot. plus, i don't know if i'm ready for an L lens quite yet....

any thoughts?

edit: i think the 50-150 sigma works with their teleconvertor, but i heard it looks like crap... anyone seen it before?
