Hi all, needs a all round lens like I've mention above though I've others for more serious shooting.

Which is more sharp? any reviews out there to read or even better any CSers here has real life experience to advise me.

Appreciate your help.

Er, none of these two are Canon equipment, but anyway, there are a lot of great reviews for the Sigma.

choose the Sigma , regadless wheter it's sharper or not cause it have OS which is very important for such a low aperture and long range lens.
or maybe compare it to tamron 28-300 VC (if you willing to sacrifice the wider end on the Sigma)
