Comments about Sigma Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Auto Focus Macro Lens for Nikon AF Cameras:

This lens in one day alone has put all of my previous macro work to shame. Takes amazing macro photos in bright and dim conditions. When paired with a close-up glass filter this lens can really put you extremely close to subjects you never thought possible!

Out of the box and not a single bad shot. I love this lens and think everyone should have one.I was looking for a good portrait lens and not only found just what I was after, but more. The pictures it allows me to take are clear with great color, even in low light. Great bokeh as well.Thanks Sigma [...]

Comments about Sigma Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Auto Focus Macro Lens for Nikon AF Cameras:

I use this product on my Nikon D200. It is a fast lens that is quite versatile. Images taken with it have all turned out sharp with excellant detail. I highly recommend this professional quality lens available at a very reasonable price. The lens lives up to the review given-(by Popular Photography Magazine the latter part of 2006). This lens and my Nikon 18-200 VR are all I carry for most image shoots! Really-all I need 90% of the time.

This lens let me take a picture of an ordinary flower so close up it looks like an alien land scape !! Very cool lens to take out of the ordinary photos.
