Sigma APO 300mm F2.8 EX DG/HSM Pro Reviews

slrgear‘s review Edit

If you're looking at this lens, the odds are you're wondering how the Sigma lens stacks up to those provided by the ''brand-name'' manufacturers. Our tests show the Sigma 300mm ƒ/2.8 to perform very well: sharpness is very good, CA is optimized for use at ƒ/2.8, there's virtually no distortion and light falloff is almost non-existent. Optically, the lens stands well on its own. So it's hard not to recommend the lens: it's solidly-built and performs well, especially for the price point. In the final analysis it could come down to a situation where, if you're going to shell out that much for a lens, is it worth it to go the extra mile and get a lens which performs that much better?
