I purchased this lens to shoot wildlife and as previous reviews stated the focus at longer lengths is a just little slow, but the price is lighter on the wallet. The overall weight is heavy, but expected. I like what I get throughout the entire range and would purchase another Sigma - may the 18 -200mm?

The lens I recieved would be more out of focuse the more you zoomed. Tried many different f-stops focal lenghts. The lens clearly had a problem mainting good focus the more you zoomed. Even when refocusing after zooming.

I've had a need for a 2.8 lens for a long time, but I was determined to find a "deal" on this lens. Unfortunately, this lens costs [$] no matter where you get it. I understand now why this lens isn't discounted. It's fast, quiet, smooth, the clarity of the images is outstanding and it's half the price of a Nikon, Canon, Sony, etc. 70-200mm 2.8. I highly recommend this lens.

I bought this lens to use for pictures of my daughter's basketball games. It works great for low-light indoor sports. The two biggest drawbacks are weight - you almost have to use a tripod or monopod - and the speed of the auto-focus at long focal lengths - not as quick as I would like when taking basketball game shots - overall, a very useful lens

This lens is suitable for taking all type of subjects such as portraits, landscape, and close-up pictures. Two SLD "Special Low Dispersion" and three ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion) glass elements provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations.
High image quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range. The super multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting. This lens incorporates HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor), which ensures a quiet and high-speed AF as well as full-time manual focusing capability.
The lens design incorporates an inner focusing and inner zooming systems. The overall length of the lens does not change during focusing and zooming, ensuring convenient handling. A removable tripod collar (TS-21) is included as a standard component.
When this lens is used with the optional 1.4x EX DG APO or 2x EX DG APO Tele Converters, it becomes a 98-280mm F4 AF telephoto zoom lens or a 140-400mm F5.6 AF telephoto zoom lens respectively.
