I'm pretty new to photography got my 3200 about 2 months ago. So far love it. The 2 lenses I currently have are the kit 18-55 and a 50MM prime that a friend sold me for cheap. The wife wants me to get a zoom lens for her upcoming sisters high school graduation. I'm not super sure of the layout of the venue but pretty sure it's a auditorium. So would like to get a zoom to setup tripod in back of room. Unfortunately finances are kinda tight right now so here are the two options I'm looking at: The Nikon 55-200 which I can get refurbished at B&H photo for $109.Or the Sigma 70-300 which I can get off ebay for around $100 or new from Adorama for $160.
At this point it's really a toss up for me. I like the option of the extra 100mm for $50 more. And it has great reviews online. But also like the Nikon...well because it's a Nikon lens and easier to find if I decide to go used. So I figured I'd come here and ask for your help.
Thanks in Advance,
Jeffrey
