5.0 out of 5 stars good deal!
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)

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor performing
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Glass, April 28, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
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.

2.0 out of 5 stars Should not say MACRO, January 13, 2008
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 bought this lens and wish now I had not. I was looking for a real macro lens and with a focal point in macro of 37.4 it does not produce the photos I want. I saw no difference in the normal photos and ones with the macro switched on. It is alright as a general lens but don't expect the clairity and quality that you would get with higher end lenses. I'd rate this ho-hum.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great*MUST HAVE*Lens, March 8, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
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 zoom lens fantastically increases your range and the MACRO feature is another great plus. It is not too heavy, and gives you options of manual/auto focus. The price is right from this reputable company.
