Had two of these; VERY BAD so far

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: I really cannot recommend this lens, it is a perfect example of why to not cut corners on lens quality. Cheap and nasty!
Review: Maybe I have been unlucky with this lens as I have had very poor results. Surprising really when I have read good things about it from other users.

I bought this lens ironically to replace a 17-35mm Sigma EX lens that was very soft. This...

Great professional grade lens

Date of Review:  Mar 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: Definately buy this lens if you are trying to decide between Nikon or Sigma.
Review: I am a professional newspaper photographer and I bought this lens when my old Nikon 50mm bit the dust. I usually stay away from the "off brands" but a friend had just bought a Sigma 105mm and was raving about the quality. I also needed a macro lens...

Sigma 50mm Macro lens with 1:1 magnification

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: An excellent macro-lens producing outstanding image quality, from an independent lens maker. If you need a 50mm lens for macro and normal shooting, this is it.
Review: Introduction

If one looks for a specialized lens for a specific type of photography, such as macro, a camera s own manufacturer is the appropriate place to go. Nikon is best known for offering a whole range of lenses for macro photography...

Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro Lens Nikon Fit
To maintain high optical performance from infinity to close-up 1:1 (life-size) macro photos without accessories, the Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX incorporates a floating element focusing system. Designed as a quick-focusing macro lens, the AF speed of 50mm, f/2.8 EX Macro is 1.4 times faster than previous 50mm f/2.8 macros. It features a non-rotating front lens group which makes it easier to work with polarizing filters and has a focus limiter (eg. Full Range infinity - 9.8 /25cm 9.1 - 7.4 /23 - 19cm). The Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX Macro lens also features the new deluxe EX external finish. A handy screw-type metal sunshade makes it easier to rotate a polarizing filter. Corresponding AF Mount: Sigma SA, Canon, Minolta, Nikon(D) and Pentax Includes 4 Year Service Plan (1 year international warranty plus 3 years extended warranty). Item Specifications: Product Description: Sigma EX macro lens - 50 mm Weight: 11.1 oz Length: 3 in Min Focus Range: 7.4 in Lens System: Macro lens Lens Aperture: F/2.8 Focus Adjustment: Automati
