Excellent lens at any price, but this one happens to be inexpensive!!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought this lens after hearing about the Sigma brand in Consumer Reports. When I bought my Canon SLR camera recently, I was really dissapointed that the macro and telefoto lenses each cost almost as much as I paid for the camera! Because I am a beginning photographer I really didn’t want to invest too much money on extra lenses. However, I did decide to go ahead and purchase this lens since I figured it wasn’t a huge investment compared to how much Canon brand lenses run. Boy am I glad I made this purchase! This lens takes absolutely gorgeous photographs. The lens itself also seems very sturdy and well made. The only drawback with this lens is the lack of image stabilization, but a tripod or other solid resting surface takes care of that easily. All in all, this product is definitely worth a try and I highly recommend it!

I have been taking great nature shots with this lens. I can get close to birds, frogs, butterflies etc. Easy to use and works perfect with my Rebel EOS

I enjoy taking pictures, and this lens definitely made it even more enjoyable. I do recommend using a tripod when using this lens, because it is sensitive to any movements, but the outcome of the pictures will prove to be well worth what you spend on the lens.

Bought this after reading the reviews. Works as advertised and the shipping was on time. Used it at my friend’s graduation and got some great long range shots.

I have the Nikon D60 I think it’s the best lens for this price ,but the bad thing is that is not VD, if your are not a professional photographer this lens can be a little difficult for taking pictures because of this. I’m telling you again its a really good lens.

Good for ten days
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Very pleased with the lens until the auto focus quit on the ninth day. motor drives it to full infinity. You don’t get what you didn’t pay for. You get a $160 lens for $159.95! The MACRO work just fine, Over about 250mm it gets fuzzy. I Sure can’t use it hand held w/o hi iso and fast shutter. A good value lens that broke within return time limit. I would buy another one but maybe I will go for a Nikon with VR.

Love this lens. This is the lens I keep on my Sony Alpha 350 DSLR. Product arrived as stated and in new condition from Amazon. Very satisfied.
