Default Canon XS digital with older film lens

I have tried the Sigma 28-80 lens from my Canon Rebel 2000 film camera on my new Canon XS digital camera. When I have the lens pulled back to 28 mm the lens hangs. Or at least I think that is what is happening. If I move the camera before it finishes the image is blured like it was shot with a slow shutter. But if I zoom out to 35 mm or above it works fine. What's happening when I shoot at 28 mm? Am I doing any damage to the camera? At the longer settings the pictures seem to be good but I havent shot very many. Wanted to make sure I'm not damaging the camera. Thanks

Interesting. Examples?

The one thing I can say is that you won't hurt the camera.

Not sure what to make of this other then the aperture is suck stoped down at 28mm. Waiting for instka.
