I'll be brief... this is one heavy lens, and shooting a wedding with this for the first time was surprisingly taxing given its size and weight. However, the results from this f/2.8 were magnificent. from Amazon.com Why bother with a prime lense ? I am here to tell you the sharpness is unbelievable from 70 to 150 range at f/2.8... Recently took portrait shots of my 3 year old grand niece. from Amazon.com For the money, this is a fantastic lens. I am too green to give a better review, but I wanted to point out that this is a EX, APO lens (you can see APO if you enlarge and zoom, but EX you can't and it's not in the product description). from Amazon.com This is just a great lens. The HSM focuses very fast and the build quality is excellent. The tripod mount is durable and cleverly designed. from Amazon.com Some of these reviews are a little misleading in the sense that they appear to have been merged in from reviews written about the Nikon version of this lens. Sony clearly states that HSM is not supported on Sony/Minolta bodies, so why a Sony user would want to spend 800 dollars for this lens when the excellent 70-300mm APO is available for 200 bucks is a bit of a mystery, unless there's something else about this one that just requires one to spend 4x the money for less range. from Amazon.com This is a very well built and solid lens. HSM is blazing fast. Focusing is accurate and sharp wide open @ f/2.8. from Amazon.com Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG HSM II Macro Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras from Amazon.com This is a great lens for the price. Well made and easy to use. from Amazon.com is one of important alternative for Nikon shooters, especially for sports photographer. Mounted in Nikon D700, it delivers great image quality, sharpness and a smooth bokeh. from Amazon.com I have owned this lens for about half a year now. I have used it for sports, widelife, portraits, and general photography. from Amazon.com
