It sure is. Most of the photos i take are at motorsport related events and i've only found a few times where i wished i had more than 300mm zoom. No idea what that is in terms of 10x digital zoom though! More commonly, I find that i take a pic of the object in the 150-250mm range and continue to take photos as it gets closer - but then i hit the 70mm limit and it ends up too close (i'm talking rally pics etc here!). Having a 28-300mm lens would solve this, but its a bit more money.
I've only got the entry level DSLR from Canon (about £400 with the 18-55mm kit lens) and since then i've only bought one more lens - the Sigma 70-300mm.

I managed to get it from Park Cameras for £99 and for that kind of money, its an absolute bargain.
