Sigma 28-70mm F2.8-4 DG Nikon Lens
REVIEWS: 1) Best digital camera lens for detail ever offered for the price!: Hey guys & gals--listen up! I have bought dozens of lenses for both Canon and Nikon and ran tests for detail comparison. One of the things that pro publications look for in an image is how the image detail is at 100%. This lens on front of my Nikon D-200 is a detail weapon and outshines any of the Nikon lenses 10 to 1. In fact the detail was so sharp at 100% from edge to edge that I was fooled thinking it was scaled only to 50% so I scaled it
out to 200% and it still looked good. WOW! Try doing that with the new 18-200 VR! That lens was a dog and I sold it on E-bay and refuse to buy any more Nikon lenses.They are overpriced junk!!! Some of these Sigma lenses (like this one for less than a hundred bucks) is a digital dream--especially if your camera has more than 10 megapixels. The other thing that pro printing looks for is excellent dynamic range and no blown out colors. I couldn"t believe the color reproduction on this lens.It
was so.............................accurate. Maybe this lens is a freak
I don"t know if they are all like this but this one will stay on my Nikon for almost everything I take. Anyone out there with Nikons ought to order this lens just for the price savings alone. 2) Good lense at a great price.: Japanese made at a budget price. We wanted an acutal Nikon zoom lense but they were sold out everywhere we looked. Since the Sigma was so inexpensive we decided to try it and use it until the Nikons were back in stock. We were pleasantly surprised and have decided to stick with this lense. 3) Better than the Package lens: I decided to skip the default included Nikor lens that gets bundled with the D80. I decided to look for a nice 2.8 lens to allow for as much light as possible with my new DSLR. The lens is very light and moves with a nice fluidity when zooming. It takes many standard filters for its" class and is well worth the price. So far it performs on scale with lenses twice it"s price. I have had sharp focus from corner to corner and a nice focal range. If you"re looking for a nice budget lens for your new DSLR, this should be one. 4) Great value in a very versatile lens!: This lens (28-70mm) has been on my Nikon D50 camera most of the time since purchasing it, even though I have 2 other lenses (50mm and 70-300mm Nikkor). This (Sigma) lens is a full stop faster than the Nikon equivalent (and it is less costly!). It comes with a cool looking lens hood that has a bayonet style fitting to the lens. I rated this 5 stars because it is a great value. I highly recommend this lens for someone who wants to take good pictures and doesn"t want to spend a small fortune on a lens. Great value!
