70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS for Sony

This lens is absolutely a beast and for half the price of the Sony 70-200 gm ii. The build quality is very sturdy. Image quality is tack sharp and autofocus is snappy. Highly recommend this lens

I'll start off with that if you have money to burn, Sony glass is always the best option.But this Sigma is nearly identical optically and even performs better in some categories like LOCA. The Sony does have some better ergonomics in areas, and there are definitely things you can nitpick about this lens.But for a whopping $1,300 less than the Sony option, this thing is a winner.Sigmas build quality is excellent. It is a little bit on the heavier side. You'll definitely notice when holding it up for long periods of time.But that's just the nature of telephoto lenses.It's easy to customize and use all of the buttons on the lens.Lots of options for making it work the way you need it to.If you're not convinced already, check out many of the amazing reviews on YouTube about this lens.

I recently purchased this lens to replace my Tamron v1 exclusively to shoot high school basketball. Two things that I noticed right off the bat. 1 at the same aperture this lens produces brighter images than the Tamron. 2 When it comes to auto focus, this lens is a game changer.. when you half press the shutter, you could instantly see the action freeze , making it super easy to get the proper composition. This is certainly a lot heavier than my previous lens but with the image quality speed of the auto focus and image stabilization, it will be a keeper in my bag for many years to come..

Amazing lens, the only con it’s on the heavy side

I debated between getting this lens and getting the new G Master. I ended up going with this lens, and I haven't regretted it yet! I waited almost a year before reviewing it to make sure it was solid and believe me, it is.

I was back and forth over this and the Sony lens. This is SHARP (zoomed all the way out) and fast. Finally, getting those shots I've always wanted at my son's football games… other camera guy at the game has a Sony camera with the large white Sony lens… my set up looks better with the all black lens and camera… caught him looking a few times 😎 I'm always trying to trip it up but it I can't. Taking pictures of planes just passing over my house… was shocked at the details it picked up. I just take pictures of random things just to see what it looks like afterwards. Low-light pics are also excellent! You won't regret it. I told myself I will just try it and probably return it because it was just outside of my budget even though it is affordable compared to a lot of other options. Guys, you REALLY get what you pay for. This ain't going nowhere.

This was for my daughter. She said that the lens was badly packed, hopefully there will not be a problem with the lens

Awesome lens, great product!
