Sigma 50mm Macro lens with 1:1 magnification

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: An excellent macro-lens producing outstanding image quality, from an independent lens maker. If you need a 50mm lens for macro and normal shooting, this is it.
Review: Introduction

Had two of these; VERY BAD so far

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: I really cannot recommend this lens, it is a perfect example of why to not cut corners on lens quality. Cheap and nasty!
Review: Maybe I have been unlucky with this lens as I have had very poor results. Surprising really when I have read good things about it from other users.

I bought this lens ironically to replace a 17-35mm Sigma EX lens that was very soft. This...
