Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sigma 28-300mm F3.5-6.3 Aspherical Hyperzoom IF Lens for Canon-AF CameraCustomer Review: Excellent Performance! Summary: 5 Stars
I am totally happy with this lens. I like to shoot almost anything, from panoramic views to wildlife, and I felt 80% of my needs to compose the picture and get desired zoom or wideangle effect were met. As long as the subject is in contrast with its surrounding, I have never had problems with fast autofocus. The only time it couldn't focus was when I was focusing on a brown bird that was almost camouflaged by its surroundings. I also find it very easy to use, i.e. easy to adjust zoom or manually focus. The rings seem to be in appropriate place where my hand reaches for them naturally. I have other lenses where I have to get away from the view finder and figure out which ring to grab. The performance of the lens has been excellent. I have taken pictures at mid-day with extremely bright conditions, probably the worst time to take pictures, and still with merely a hood, the pictures came out great. The use of Circualar Polarizer and UV filters just puts life into a picture, even in worst conditions(bright noon). Only problem that I encountered is that I went for overkill and put three filters, (UV, Circular, and Enhancement). This caused the light to be blocked at the edges. To overcome this I had to sacrifice the wideangle from 28 to about 45mm. If one likes to take pictures while hiking or rock climbing etc, this lens is perfect because you don't have to worry about wideangle, or zoom lenses, and amazingly its extremely light. I have seen people with half that zoom, with longer lenses. Even more amazing is the low price.
