The is a very capable macro lens with very high resolution figures, marginal vignetting and non-existing distortions. Unfortunately CAs are a on the high side which is unusual for a tele fix-focal lens – this is a correctable issue though (via PS ACR, RawShooter, etc.). The build quality is very high and thanks to HSM the AF operates pretty fast and virtually silent. Compared to similar genuine brand lenses the AF 180mm f/3.5 EX APO macro is an absolute bargain at less than half the costs. However, all-in-all the Sigma AF 150mm f/2.8 EX HSM APO macro DG was a little more convincing. “¦ READ FULL REVIEW

22 Mar 2011I bought this lens for $442 off ebay, and it was worth every cent, it has such sharp crisp images come out of it with outstanding colour and msooth bokeh.
I could have easily paid upward of $700 for this lens wich is alot of money for me…
Everything this lens brags about has the right to brag the IF design, the focal length, its sturdyness (as with all sigma lenses) all round great lens! (5 stars!)
