Sigma 18-50 2.8 EX

[Andy77]

Been offered one of these for £150?
Are they any good and has anyone got any shots taken with one of these?

Thanks Andy

I bought one in January and it's fantastic, really sharp even when wide open, very quick to focus (I'm on Nikon though). Sounds cheap at that price if it's in good nick I don't think you can go wrong.

Its virtually brand new, comes with box, lens pouch, hood and sigma EX uv filter.............

Grab it immediately, I paid more than that for mine and it did not have box/pouch or filter!

Mine is extremely sharp at f4 and very sharp at f2.8.

Samples at f2.8 (100% Crops!):

No sharpening:

Sharpened in photoshop:

Take it... Don't even think about it... Just do it!

I've had one for a couple of years now and I love it. It's bitingly sharp with good contrast. If you regret buying it, I'll be very surprised.

Cheers,
Si
