Product Description:
This high zoom ratio lens is optimized for digital SLR cameras and capable of covering a wide range of focal lengths from 50mm standard to 500mm ultra telephoto. The advanced optical design is optimized for digital SLR cameras. In addition, the new super coating on each glass surface produces superb color rendition, while reducing flare and ghosting.

Amazon.com Product Description:
Optimized for Pentax and Samsung digital SLR cameras, this high-zoom Sigma lens is capable of covering a wide range of focal lengths, from 50mm standard to 500mm ultra telephoto. The lens employs four pieces of special-low-dispersion (SLD) glass to correct for color aberration throughout the entire zoom range, along with a super coating on each glass surface that reduces flare and ghosting. As a result, all your images come out crisp and colorful. The lens also includes a Zoom Lock device that eliminates "zoom creep" when the lens is tilted down. And thanks to the non-rotating front lens elements, you can attach a custom bayonet "petal-type hood" to prevent extraneous light from degrading the image quality. Other features include support for APO teleconverters (sold separately), which can convert the lens to 140-700mm or 200-1000mm focal lengths; a magnesium tripod mount with an ergonomic design; and a close focusing distance of 39.4 to 118.1 inches. All Sigma lenses carry a one-year warranty.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good lens with a Learning Curve
I've had this lens for several weeks and have taken it in the field on three occasions shooting wildlife photos in the South Florida wetlands. It has an exellent zoom range and the image quality is very good but not great (great comes at about 4X the price). The number one complaint you will read about on all the review sites is the weight of this lens. This is true and if you are looking for a walk-around lens or hiking companion to cary around your neck all day this is not it. The build quality ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great lens at a good price
I've read many reviews of this lens, in many places. Most of them begin by stating that this lens is very heavy - too heavy to use without a tripod. I agree, but why would anyone use a 500mm lens without at least a monopod? Yes, this lens weighs four pounds. But Sigma also makes a 500mm prime lens that weighs seven pounds, so it's all relative. As for quality, this lens is excellent. It's f/6.3 at 500mm, so there's the tradeoff between this lens and their (street-price $4,200) 500mm f/4.5 lens. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great decision
I was first thinking about this lens a year ago. I had seen some great results on different forums but ended up not buying it. I bought a teleconverter instead for my existing lens. Now a year later after being disappointed with the teleconverter I decided to go ahead and buy the Bigma. What a difference. The images are sharp, there is no CA, edge sharpness is good. Yes, it is a little heavy and not the fastest 50mm lens out there, but who buys a 50-500 zoom for the short end anyway? I took it out to ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wonderful lens. A little too heavy.
This is a very good lens. Very sharp pictures and excellent zoom range. However, the lens is quit heavy so u probly need a tripod most of the time. Although it can be used as a 50mm lens I doubt anyone will carry it for that purpose. On the other hand it is nice to have that zoom range if ur on a safari so u dont have to change lenses to shoot something close. I will mainly use this for wild life photography and this an excellent lens for that purpose for the money I can spend.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - SigmaBigma & 47th ST - Great Combo!
I think the title tells it all. The Sigma Bigma is a perfect match for my K10D and the service from 47th St could not have been better.
