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. Read full review

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.Read full review

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.Read full review

Love this Lens!

The image stabilization work great,it makes clicking noises when Focusing though, I'm not sure if that is normal. It seems to hunt a bit sometimes when focusing, but I have nothing g to compare it to, bottom line is this lens rocks!!Read full review

Great Lens

I am a novice when it comes to camera equipment. My camera is a Canon XTi and the lens is a standard Canon 75-300mm F5.6. I can take decent pictures but don't know anything about f stops, shutter speeds and lighting calculations. I just move the little dial to "sports" when I'm taking pictures of something moving and move it to "flower" when I'm taking pictures of something up close....etc.

Well, my girls have been in gymnastics for a couple of years and just started entering meets. Due to the fact that you can't use a flash, 90% of my pictures were blurry (even when they were standing still) So, I did some online investigations and found that I need a lens with a lower f-stop. I have no idea how to calculate what I need but there were suggestions that it would need to be in the f2 to f3 range. I found this lens at a really great price (compared to all others in the 200mm+ range) and with great reviews.

I haven't taken it to a meet yet but I took it to practice last week under similar circumstances. The lens allowed me to capture my daughter on the trampoline in mid-air like she was frozen with nearly zero blur and good lighting. I've included what my pictures looked like with my old 300mm lens vs what they look like with this 200mm Sigma.

I was utterly shocked when I received it as I was expecting something smaller than my 300mm. This thing looks like it was engineered vs the standard Canon lens that looks like it was just put together. Its a beast. I couldn't be more happy.

Crisp with amazing bokeh

Great lens for the price. The bokeh is amazing! When focus is spot on, it is sharp and crisp. The lens is heavy, but I am used to the 150-600mm so this is light in comparison.

This lens is the best 3rd party alternative

If you can afford the Canon, get the Canon (or Nikon). If you can't, this is the best way to go. It focuses rely fast and accurately. Images are sharp and construction is durable.

70-200 Sigma Takes very Sharp Photos

Excellent Lens for portrait photos and especially being used for weddings shots. at 2.8 F-stop through out the lens, there is no real need to change any settings when zooming in for the shot. Very fast Lens....Read full review
