 Great Lens for its money! July 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this lens for a back up because I have to send my main lens Canon 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM in for repair. At first I did not like it because I was used to the IS feature and the camera shake was horrible. But after attaching it to a mono pod and actually taking it out for a real test drive I was simply amazed. This lens is really really nice. And you can't beat the price. Have only had it for a few weeks and finally can control the camera shake a little while holding hand held. The camera that I use is the Canon 40D so the two combined it works wonders.
I read the reviews in here first before I purchased the lens and a lot of people complained about the auto focus. Well the reason why you are having problems with focusing is because you are to close to the subject. Its a macro/telephoto lens. You don't have to stand on top of the subject to get the shot. If you back up a little or till the point it will focus you will get a clear shot. It just takes time and patients.
This lens also makes a good portrait lens! It has become my every day lens here of late! Highly recommended it! Forgot to mention the colors are amazing. I have noticed since using this lens I do very little editing in CS3. Hopefully one day amazon will allow me to upload pictures. Keeps saying they are having problems. You can view the pictures I have taken with this lens at my better photo site. www.betterphoto.com?sadonna

I was looking for a newer, replacement lens for my Canon digital SLR, and stumbled across this gem. Half the price of the equivalent Canon brand lenses, it immedaitely caught my attention. Once I satisfied myself that it would indeed be compatible with my camera, I bought it and tried it out. Not only did it work, it was easier to use than the lens I had bought it to replace! I highly recommend this lens to any Canon owner looking for a telephoto lens, whether they have a digital or print camera.

I was looking for an AF lens a bit less expensive than the actual canon lenses. I am a casual picture taker, and the response from the lens is better than I was expecting given the price differences from the "name" brand. I have actually been looking at other sigma lenses first now.
