The Sigma 70-300 i just acquired..Prior to the DG upgrade, this lens already had an enormous reputation for its picture quality compared to its price. The upgrade has only enhanced this. The usefulness of the lens is greatly added to with its ability to focus down to less than a meter and anyone wishing to photograph large insects such as butterflies or dragonflies will find it one of the most useful lenses for this discipline, being light enough to carry on a neck strap all day with the focal length allowing the luxury of not needing to get too close.
Well... smoking is not injurious to photography..... duh! What was that?
Verdict:
For:1. Excellent performance in macro. 2. Light enough to carry around.
Against: 1. Not good for low light photography.. needs very bright lighting conditions for clarity. 3. Anything more than 200mm goes blur... suggest a sturdy tripod and delay shutter trigger/ remote trigger
