This review is from: Sigma Zoom Telephoto 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Autofocus Lens + EX Filter + Cleaning Cloth for Canon EOS (Electronics)
So far this has been a excellent purchase. I have enjoyed using the lense for adding to my dragonlfy and orchid photos. If you don't have the cash for a Canon or Nikon, this Sigma is the way to go, especially for the hobbist photographer. (But make sure you know if your shooting in manuel or automatic)

This review is from: Sigma Zoom Telephoto 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Autofocus Lens + EX Filter + Cleaning Cloth for Canon EOS (Electronics)
This lens has "good glass." The acompanying filter likewise is good glass, especially for the price. A fully functional autofocus lens here at a fair price.

Poor performing,

This review is from: Sigma Zoom Telephoto 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Autofocus Lens + EX Filter + Cleaning Cloth for Canon EOS (Electronics)
I sent this poor performing lens back and opted for the slightly more expensive Canon 75-300 mm USM. The autofocus speed difference is like night and day. Happy I made the switch.
