One of my co-workers wants to join in our plane-spotting excursions. He's got a DSLR (Canon XTi), but no long lens. And he has some pretty severe budgetary restrictions (also known as several little kids running around at home). I know there are a bunch of $200ish "consumer" telephoto zooms...Canon, Tamron, and Sigma all make 70/75-300s in that price range, for example. He's quite aware of the limitations of buying such a cheap lens (soft pictures, no takeoff shots), but that said, which would you guys recommend as the least bad of the bunch?
