Pros:
|
Probably my most used lens. It's sharp - even wide open. I love the zoom range...
|
|
Cons:
|
OK - Sigmonster is called Sigmonster for a reason - it's huge & heavy. It takes me a while to set up.... ;)

I got my Sigmonster just about a year ago now. Since then I have to say it's my most used lens. I always wanted to shoot wildlife & always longed for longer lenses. I also like to work with zooms.
This one fit the bill for me. I can zoom & I have reach. I'm now out almost every weekend with it. And without it I feel lost. I have so many shots with it, it's almost insane.
I was concerned about transporting it, but got a "Beach-Rolly" with which I roll it around all over in the terrain.
Anyone who wants to see what this lens can produce need just go to my Zenfolio site & look - - it's very prominent there.
I love it - & if focal length is what you need & want - this is it. I have not regretted this buy once.
