An entry level, high quality lens. Excellent for bird/wildlife photography with crisp focus and sharp detail. The macro aspect of the lens is a little soft on the focus and detail but I can live with it. Autofocus is quick, quiet and only "hunts" for focus occasionally. The tripod attachment collar is a good addition to relieve strain on the camera mount. This lens also works well with the Sigma 1.4x teleconverter for added magnification. Over all, a very good lens at a very good price. The delivery was surprisingly fast and hassle free.

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG HSM II Macro Zoom Lens Is about the next best think too a Nikon Lens, 2.8 is good fast piece of glass. Just remember the bigger the glass the better the picture and most of all the price,the same Nikon lens will be about $1,200.00 and the Sigma will $400.00 less. Sigma has many fast Lens at 2.8 they even have some new ones at 1.8 like there 24,28,50mm in low light any one of these Lens are great too have in your bag of tricks and if you shoot Weddings there a must have. Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG HSM II Macro Zoom Lens is the newer version of this lens the older one well not work well with Digital Cameras unless the software was upgraded by Sigma. For you who have the money they just came out with the OS model witch will help you if you don't know how too hold a lens steady in low light like in a church that will not let you use a Flash this will be help full and the price is about $1,200.00 in stead of Nikon's $2,200.00 for there VR lens. If your new too the business and trying too save a little money go Sigma after a dozen Weddings or so or by the time you will have too replace it you would have made the money too by Nikon. 1. What I like ? The price and the speed of 2.8 lens. 2. What I love ? More bang for my dollar. 3. What I dislike ? Its a litter heaver then the Nikon . 4. Why I decided to buy it ? Price, good glass, 2.8 speed, and a 5 year warranty. Sigma will stand by there lens as long as you don't drop it!!!!!!!Read full review
Love this lens so far. With only a couple putting under my belt with it, it has been amazing thus far. Sadly, I admit that I have a lot to learn about using it. So far the shots I have gotten were nothing shy of awesome quality!

I love this lense. It’s made it so much easier to work with, it’s reliable for sharp pictures and so much easier to provide they blurred background. One of my favorite lenses to work with.
