Very versatile focal range from wide to short telephoto. Not too big and heavy for all day photo trek. Matches nicely with cropped sensor APS-C DSLRs. Close focusing ability at maximum focal length of 70mm (which will be 105mm on an APS-C sensor). Not a true 1:1 dedicated Macro Lens but will do nicely in a pinch. Very well constructed, very sharp across the frame when stopped down to f/4.0 and beyond. The colors are wonderful and renders a nice background bokeh. Highly recommend.

The Sigma 70mm f2.8 DG EX macro is among the best 4 best macro lenses in the world: Canon 100mm f2.8L IS, Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR Micro and probably the sharpest one Sigma 150 f2.8 DG EX macro. Sigma 70mm f2.8 EX DG (special color corrected multi-coating and designed for any format APS or full-frame sensors) is absolutely sharp with great "bokeh" for macro shots and also portraits (sometimes too sharp for portraits). It fits very well in the APS cameras as a 100 or 112mm macro for that perfect distance in flowers & insects shots or as a super fast portrait lens. Fitted in a full-frame you'll get a great all purpose macro, landscape, portrait lens. I have had them all and I kept the 70mm and 150mm Sigmas. Since them I'm always ready for any kind of product, portrait and macro shooting. I'm a professional photographer based in NYC with 3 decades of experience.Read full review

Loved the lens. Better than my 2 new lens from Pentax. Detailed picture and works well all the time.
