Good walk around lens despite its weight

Date of Review:  Sep 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great all purpose lens. Opt for canon primes if you don't need zoom.
Review: I bought this lens instead of a canon L lens due to the cost difference and decided to go for it after reading many good reviews. I cannot compare it to an L lens, as many reviews do.

What I like:

This is a great walk around lens...

A good performer, close to Nikon lens four times its price

Date of Review:  Sep 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: At a price of less than thirty percent of the equivalent Nikon lens, the Sigma acquits itself very well.

Use it, abuse it and learn to love it

Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's 1/2 the price of the Canon L but 3/4 the lens. I have recommended it to friend.
Review: This lens really is a terrific value. The Canon L lens is better but at around $1100.00 you d expect that. It feels almost as good as the L until you have to fumble to find and turn the zoom ring. It was VERY stiff in spots when it was new but it...

The advent of digital SLRs requires optimum lens performance and therefore the very latest optical technology has been incorporated in the production of this medium telephoto macro lens. The 70mm focal length gives an equivalent field of view as our popular 105mm macro lens when used on digital SLR cameras with an APS-C size image sensor. The design of this lens makes it suitable for taking pictures in all situations both with natural light conditions or flash.------This lens would have an equivalent field of view of a 105mm telephoto macro lens when used on digital SLR cameras with an APS-C size image sensor. The narrow angle of view is a great aid for simplifying backgrounds and shallow depth of field makes it easier to handle the composition.
