That's the older, non-OS version. The one you're looking for, specifically, is the Sigma APO 50-150mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM. How's that for a mouthful?

Because we've told you on numerous occasions you need to adjust your settings. You say you're using a Sharpening setting of +9 or something, but the images you post clearly indicate you are not. You are using the "Neutral" Picture Control with a Sharpness setting of "2"; the image you posted...

Okay, that's better... Those images don't look noisy to me but they do look a little soft... One thing I notice you're shooting at f/22 which probably isn't helping; f/8 probably would have been better. Also, have you adjusted the in-camera "Sharpness" setting on your camera? Here's one of...

I took some shots of a local ska band playing at the Pier View Pub a couple weeks ago by request and quickly discovered this whole "photography thing" can be HARRRD at times. Still, I thought I managed to do okay all things considered... Like the low-light and crowded atmosphere which changes...
