Re: NIKKOR 55-300 ED VR or Sigma 70-300 DG OS | |
I recently sold my Sigma 70 macro, as i downsized do to health reasons. Theres nothing out there for that price that is as sharp. The zoom however may be a better choice for your fathers needs. The Sigma 70 was the sharpest medium tele-lens that a leading photo magazine said they had ever tested. I owned the Sigma 50, 70, 150 and 180 macro lenses. That 70MM lens is screw, worm drive and gets rather long during focusing. This might be a problem with his D5100 , if it wont do screw drive AF.
Good Luck
