Reviews
Great lens, solid build quality Awesome addition to our 70D camera. Bought for child sports and wildlife photography, so far only used for swim meets and the picture quality is better overall compared to the Sigma 18-250 we have been using (which itself is really good). Solidly built, smooth adjusting, near silent and fast auto focusing. The image stabilization works like a charm, though it can slow down action shooting ever so slightly. It is hefty, but did find that holding under the tripod adapter really stabilizes it. Buying after a fair amount of research, it has more than met expectations.
Great lens for a fraction of the cost. This is a great alternative to the more expensive name brand lenses. It takes great pictures. Has a little vignetting in the 200 mm range. Since I primarily use it for sports, I don't notice it as much. All in all, I couldn't be happier.
New Sigma lens AF 70-200mm f/2.8 APO EX DG OS HSM Excellent lens, sharp pictures across the entire range. Good in low light. On the heavy side in terms of weight, but that translates into solid build quality. The tripod ring has a nice feature in that it is hinged so it can be removed without having to remove the lens from camera body! Neat! Overall, this lens offers great value compared to equivalent higher priced competitors such as Canon.
