from Cameta Camera, NY eB Summary: I used this lens at a SF Giants games and have gotten nice results (even from the upper view level). The Auto Focus tends to search a little in Low Light. Sometimes the edge of the photos can be kind of dark. Of course I was using a higher shutterspeed at a great distance in order to freeze the action. Under normal circumstances the pictures come out very nice.
I got this lens included in a kit packaged with a Canon EOS Rebel Ti and a Sigma 28-80mm AF Mini Zoom Macro Lens. Total kit price was $299.95. At $140.00 this lens is a bargain. As in the other reviews this lens takes great pictures and is of good quality.
This lens is excellent for sporting events.
Still I eventually want to purchase the new 80-400mm EX APO Optical Stabalization AF Lens. However, we are talking about a Thousand Dollar lens. That is not a fair comparison.
Again, for the price this lens is a bargain and it takes very good pictures. Strengths: Focal Length.
Quality for the price. Weaknesses: 300mm is not as close as what is really wanted.
Not compatable with Sigma 2X Teleconverter. (However, it does work well with Kenko 2X teleconverter.) Similar Products Used: Canon EF 28-200mm AF USM.
Sigma 28-80mm AF MSM,
Tamron 19-35mm Super Wide Angle Zoom,
Sigma 50mm EX Macro and a Sigma 105mm EX Macro. Customer Service: Customer Service via email has been very helpful
