If the size and weight aren’t a bother for you (and it has sufficient IQ), then go for it. The extra zoom would be nice.

One note, if that’s a protection filter on it, I’d remove it in order to preserve as much contrast and color as possible, and reduce flare (which that lens is somewhat prone to). Use a hood instead. Happy shooting!

Good eye! That is a protection filter - the seller put it on the lens because they didn't have a lens cap for it. I bought the Canon lens cap (a Sigma 72mm lens cap was weirdly much more expensive!) and I never thought to remove the filter.

Thanks!
