Sigma 28 mm f/1.8 EX DG Aspherical Macro

 

The increased popularity of APS-C digital reflex cameras created a problem with standard lens. In small format analogue photography a standard lens meant an instrument with 50 mm focal length and 1.4-1.8 aperture. Connected to digital reflex cameras,...

good image quality in the frame centre from f/2.8 aperture ; low chromatic aberration ; low distortion ; quite good work against bright light ; solid housing ; minimal focus already from 20 cm ; rich standard accessory kit ; 3+2 years of guarantee

very weak image quality near the maximum relative aperture ; unacceptable performance at the edge of full frame practically at all aperture values ; visible coma and high astigmatism ; huge vignetting on full frame ; noisy and unreliable autofocus ;...

Sigma 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 DG Macro

 

This lens from Japanese manufacturer Sigma is their answer to a ‘do everything' lens. With a zoom ratio of nearly 11x it covers everything from wide angle on a full frame sensor to long telephoto on a cropped sensor. We take a look at how it performs.

Huge focal range; Compact and lightweight to carry; Good performance through the short end; Good value for money

Softens a tad at the longer settings

Sigma 28-300mm F3.5-6.3 DG MACRO Lens (Pentax Mount)

 

This Sigma 28-300mm F3.5-6.3 DG MACRO digitally optimized lens covers all the focal lengths from 28mm wide angle to 300mm telephoto with 10.7:1 high zoom ratio as well as macro capability. The new multi layer lens coating and lens design reduce flare...

The new multi layer lens coating and lens design reduce flare and ghost, which is a common problem with digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance through the entire zoom range. This lens features two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass...

Huge focal range; Compact and lightweight to carry; Good performance through the short end; Good value for money

Chromatic abberations around the edges at the longer lengths; Softens a tad at the longer settings

If you need a general purpose lens to carry on your camera, and don't use the long end that often but would like to have the option there without changing lenses, this could well be the item you are after. Good performance through the shorter half of...

Love this lens already !

 

My main propose for this lens is to shoot in Studio and outdoors for it\'s 1.8 F-stop. I did a couple of test with it to check if I have back or front focus wide open and I have to say that lens performed extremely well at 1.8 with perfect focus on AF....

Great optics, shame about the AF

 

This is a fantastic piece of fast glass, pin sharp right through the range, BUT it\'s totally spoilt by having the slowest noisiest AF i\'ve ever seen, seriously, it\'s appaling.

Sigma just keep getting better

 

I really wasn\'t expecting much from this lens other than its glass speed but wow it\'s super sharp right from f1.8 with Canon "L" like colour and contrast. the above along with its close focusing ability make this a great prime to have.

impressive optic

 

I use this fabulous lens ona Sony a700 body, on which it focusses rapidly and accurately. Eectronically it "talks" to the camera accurately, with no compatibility issues or exposure problems. Optically it is excellent, very sharp at mid-aperture range,...
