I am under presure from a dealer to try a SAKAR 75-300 lens. I find that the
photo mags have prices for SAKAR that are > Sigma/Vivitar.  However, I am
a bit reluctant to buy this rather dark horse company. How do the SAKAR
lenses compare w/ the others? (Tamron is out of my budget for the time
being).

Please mail me any experiences/comments; I'll be happy to redirect replies
to any interested parties.

Thanx in advance.
