The Sigma 70mm f2.8 DG EX macro is among the best 4 best macro lenses in the world: Canon 100mm f2.8L IS, Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR Micro and probably the sharpest one Sigma 150 f2.8 DG EX macro. Sigma 70mm f2.8 EX DG (special color corrected multi-coating and designed for any format APS or full-frame sensors) is absolutely sharp with great "bokeh" for macro shots and also portraits (sometimes too sharp for portraits). It fits very well in the APS cameras as a 100 or 112mm macro for that perfect distance in flowers & insects shots or as a super fast portrait lens. Fitted in a full-frame you'll get a great all purpose macro, landscape, portrait lens. I have had them all and I kept the 70mm and 150mm Sigmas. Since them I'm always ready for any kind of product, portrait and macro shooting. I'm a professional photographer based in NYC with 3 decades of experience.Read full review
This is easily a pro quality lens and build as well! Amazing sharpness throughout the range! Contrast is top notch! Build quality is great! Focusing is fast and relatively quiet for a non-HSM lens. Macro mode is not really a true macro mode, but more just a close-up mode, but it works amazingly well for flowers and the like! Color reproduction is outstanding! CA/PF's are well controlled and I have yet to have any issues with them with my copy! This is one of my favorite lenses! Great for portraiture, weddings, street shooting, etc. It easily compares with the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L counterpart. I shot the two side by side and went with the Sigma instead, far cheaper in cost, but performance was about equal in IQ, the Canon did however focus just a tiny bit quicker, but both locked on easily and accurately. You won't be disappointed!Read full review
Very good lens for a full frame camera. Sharp images and very quick autofocus. I had to make minor micro focus adjustments on camera, but now it's perfect.

I rented the Canon L 24-70mm 2.8 and compared it to this lens. Honestly I couldn't tell much of a difference. The Sigma produced a tad warmer feel. Nothing color correction in post or profiles that couldn't correct. Sigma AF makes noise. Canon AF is silent. Sigma is a bit heavier than Canon. The AF speed on both lenses seemed the same. I found the Sigma was a bit sharper. I bought the Sigma used for $360. I couldn't justify the price of the Canon lens just for a silent motor, lighter lens, and minor difference in optics. This is a great lens with a great price.
This lens is very sharp and fast at focusing.It is not in the same class as the Canon L lenses but it still manages to perform well at 1/3 the price. its image quality are fantastic.Also the fix aperture of F 2.8 though its zoom range complete this winning package.If I had the money I would have brought the Canon L lens version , but since cash is an issue I brought this lens instead and I am very happy with this decision. You really can't beat the value of this lens.
