This lens has been wonderful so far! Before purchasing, I did a fair amount of research about which macro lens to get, and this seemed to be the all-around winner in terms of affordability and quality. I use it while hiking, and it does a great job of getting those beautiful close-up shots of flowers, plants, insects, etc. The focus is always incredibly sharp. I haven't been disappointed. A downside is that it is quite heavy, especially for hiking, but that's to be expected. It was well-packaged in its own case, and included 2 lens hoods.

Is my first macro lens and I have not regret. Is biginer friendly, sharp, fast focus, and I have been capturing so.many detailed images than I couldn't even think I could do it so fast to easy.

Sigma build and feel. Solid, works to perfection, great quality lenses. I own three Sigma lenses and the next one I buy will be Sigma. Their workmanship and customer service is next to without a doubt the best of any I have encountered.

I used this lens for everything from photographing mushrooms and insects to fashion models and headshots. Excellent image quality, though a little heavy. It's fast at 2.8, though if you are using it for headshots or macro, you don't need that kind of speed. Could be an F4 or 5.6 and would still be amazing. I dropped this lens out of a bag one time and Adorama had it fixed with my VIP 360 account and it worked every bit as good as it did the day I got it.

Excellent Macro lens for my Nikon D850. The auto focus is quick and quiet and the image quality is excellent.

I love this lens. It's great for close up work. There is nothing that I didn't like about it. Great lens!

I've been looking at this lens for quite a while. Then when Adorama had it on sale, I couldn't pass it up! What a well made, sturdy, macro lens from Sigma. This is one of several Sigma lenses I own. I have a Nikon D750.

Does a great job and images look great. Does it hunt a little bit? A little here and there. But that?s expected when going 1:1 brings you in on some very weird things. However, in almost all circumstances, I am in manual focus mode anyway.

It is a really nice lens and takes very clear pictures. I am a newbie and just started using manual settings rather than automatic. I have been able to blur background on portraits and pet photos. I have yet to take a really great macro shot. it is going to be a learning experience.

This is one of the best lenses I have ever owned. Not only does it take great macro shots, but it also takes great everyday pictures no matter what subject you are shooting.

I love this lens on my D780, D7100, and D50 infrared cameras. Not a fast lens, but the sharpness more than makes up for it.

The lens is fantastic. Works great for my macro shots as well as potrait photography. The shake reduction works well. Heavier lens; but well worth it for the photos I am able to get with it.

This lens earns its great reviews. It is crystal clear and produces beautiful bokeh. A fellow Adorama user recommended this lens and I am really happy with it.

Can't say enough great things about the Sigma 105mm Macro Lens. Sturdy construction. Intuitive to use despite all the buttons. Comes with a carrying bag. I got it in a bundle, so it came with lots of extra things like the lens cap strap, a set of filters, etc. Some reviewers have commented the autofocus motor can be loud. And that's sort of true. But you hear it for maybe half a second. It's certainly not at the level that I'm upset in any way, especially considering I paid under $600 for the whole kit.

Very pleased with this lens on the R6, here's an example of one that was focus stacked in DPP and edited in Luminar 4.

This is a wonderful lens! It focuses sharply, especially up close and personal with flowers and other such objects. I am very happy I purchased this lens. Thank you, Randy gresham

I purchased this lens primarily to use with my Canon 80D in doing macro photography, since extension tubes weren't doing it for me anymore. I've only taken a few macro shots so far, but the quality is fantastic - very sharp, decent working distance, perfect for the way I want to use the lens. But what surprised me is how well this lens performs in non-macro situations - pet portraits mostly, but also just some general walk-around type things. At 100mm, it's not an everyday walk-around lens, but when you have it in your bag it comes in handy. But with pets - four cats - that 100mm gives a working distance that is so much better than any of my other lenses, without sacrificing sharpness or forcing a higher ISO than I want. So far I am really happy with it.

Amazing image quality. I was blown away by the detail in stacked images using this lens. On hand held images, butterfly's and other creatures which do not want to "pose,"

I really love this lens. Super sharp and great for food and product photography.

The detail this lens captures is incredible. The AF allows for quick, easy capture. Being able to switch between AF/M and not miss shots on this lens makes it my new go-to for insects and flowers. I am beyond pleased with my purchase.

I used this lens for detail shots at some weddings I did and it turned out AMAZING!
