Sigma 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 DG IF Macro Aspherical Lens for Pentax and Samsung SLR Cameras Review

I,ve had the lens for about a year now, it was on old EOS body, not a problem with the interface between the Canon or the Sigma, worked just fine.

I have heard about some incompatibility between Sigma and Canon, but has not happened to me.

Recently bought the new Canon Eos Elan 7NE, the Sigma works perfectly with this body too.

Optically, yes , there is some distortion at some focal lengths, but nothing really terrible, the color is excellent, it is sharp pretty much all around.

Really love the lens.

Detractors of this range of lens never discuss what it really does, its like having a whole camera bag full of lens and you are alway ready for anything, that is an enormous plus, and it does what it has to do pretty well, so, if you,re planning on shooting pictures for National Geographic, maybe this is not the lens for you, but if you are a guy or gal who loves photograpy, buy it, you can,t go wrong.
