Pros:
|
good price well built and on my D300 it pin sharp. not sure what problems others are having? yes the contrast does need at tweak but I would expect that at 17mm for a sub £1000 lens!
|
Cons:
|
it not f2,8 through out apart from that a great lens on the right body
|
|
Great lens for the price only shame is its not f2.8 through out it zoom range.
I used it on my Kodak DCS Pros(Full Frame) and on D300 and D2X (In cropped mode) and all are perfect at A4 print size.
Contrast does need a boost but at this price I would expect so.
I have several Sigma EX lens and none of them have disappointed, if you are comparing them to a top end Nikon or Canon L series at triple the price then yes you may be disappointed.
17mm - 35mm f8 excellent 17mm f2.8 very good 35mm f4 very good.
I would have been happy paying £250 for it.
