Sigma 50150mm f/2.8 EX DC APO OS HSM Lens Review ePHOTOzine
The letters 'ex' ('excellent' are top quality lenses) on the body are well deserved.
Scott, they are not similar.
Cameras housed in a compact. In a good condition with normal dust inside, comes with caps and lens hood. Up to 40% off retail prices. 2.8 apo dc hsm ex rear view.
Fast and silent hsm focusing motor.
Verdict with a compact size and weight alleviating the need for a tripod collar and the third generation of sigma’s hsm focussing motor making the af. Telephoto lens for digital slr. It's in a class of its own. This is a sigma legacy zoom lens.
This lens is also compatible with the sigma 1.4x and sigma 2x teleconverters.the purpose of the teleconverters is to give you more focal length (greater magnification), so in my logic, the results that matter most are those from the long end.
Focus is very fast with sigma's hsm (hyper sonic focus motor). * a lightweight and more useful alternative for crop sensors.
