Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM review by chromavisphoto
I've had the lens now for 1 week and I've put it thru some basic macro and non-macro shots in both low-light, ambient light and sunlight conditions. The lens has performed exceptional in all instances. Paired with my new Canon T4i camera I am getting amazing images in my opinion.
Pros:
- Outstanding macro
- sharp images
- excellent OS
Cons:
- zoom rotation is backwards from the other Sigma lenses I've used

Excellent all-purpose general travel lens
Far better than the kit lenses! Very nice bokeh for close ups of flowers and the like, and excellent for portraits. Very slightly soft at the corners at 70mm, but this isn't a biggie.

Very good value / price ratio if you want to avoid weak zooms sold with high value bodies.
Pros:
- Useful range
- Lightweight
- Aberrations are not bothersome
- Very sharp on the centre
- Ideal for travelling
Cons:
- A bit soft on the edge at wide angle
- So It is needed to close the diaph at at least 5.6 or raise the focal a little bit
