Sigma APO Macro 180mm F2.8 | | Latest Review Posted | Sigma APO Macro 180mm F2.8
Modified this lens from C/Y mount, and I'm extremely pleased with it, it has become my main wildlife lens.
Lens if very sharp even wide open, with no discernible chromatic abberations. Colour rendition is rich and pleasant.
I find no problems focusing it manually as the focus ring is very smooth and nicely dampened, making it easy to precisely focus the lens with one finger. I find the feel similar to Canon's L lenses.
Only real cons are size and weight, but even so it is well balanced and easy to hand-hold. Another anoying thing is Sigma's lens ZEN finish from that age, that has a tendency to become sticky and/or is really difficult to clean, scratches and peels off easily.
