Lens Test: Sigma 18–200mm f/3.5–6.3 II DC OS HSM

 

Released in October of 2011, this second iteration of Sigma's stabilized 11.1X all-in-one zoom ($499, street) offers two seemingly significant upgrades: a high-tech FLD glass element, plus Sigma's silent HSM focusing motor. This APS-C-only zoom is the...

Relatively good distortion control

Dim maximum aperture, zoom creep

Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM Review

 

Gary Wolstenholme reviews the new Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM lens - a lens with a huge 11.1x zoom available for Nikon, Canon, Sigma, Sony and Pentax.

Decent optical performance for a super zoom lens; Lightweight; Compact; Well built; Optical stabiliser is useful (especially given the modest maximum aperture at 200mm)

CA levels at wide and telelphoto

Sigma 18-200 mm f/3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM

 

Some years ago megazooms, so lenses with a focal length multiple amounting to more than 10, belonged to this kind of equipment which would be difficult to recommend. Older full frame 28-300 mm devices and the first 18-200 mm instruments for smaller...

compact dimensions for such a wide focal lengths’ range ; very good image quality in the frame centre ; good image quality on the edge of the frame at 18-50 mm focal lengths ; chromatic aberration not higher than medium ; distortion at the widest angle...

weak image quality on the edge of the frame at 100-200 mm focal lengths ; huge vignetting throughout the whole focal range ; weak performance against bright light ; distortion for bigger focal lengths higher than that of the competitors

REVIEW: Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM

 

The 18-200mm range is popular amongst those who own a camera with an APS-C sensor and wish to travel light, with the convenience of a large 11.1x zoom range.

Decent optical performance for a super zoom lens; Lightweight; Compact; Well built; Optical stabiliser is useful (especially given the modest maximum aperture at 200mm)

Slower to focus than equivalent lenses with a silent focusing motor; Sloppy manual focusing action; CA levels at wide and telelphoto

With the price being around £100 less than comparable competition, this lens represents very good value. For a lens of its type, it produces images with decent sharpness throughout the zoom range, plus it is lightweight and well built.
