Intermediate range lens
It has been used mostly for videos. The HSM motor for video is excellent. There is no noise when lens autofocuses. I have several Sigma HSM lenses and all work as well or better than advertised. I've used them on commercial video shoots and they have been excellent.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
- Nice Bokeh
Cons:
- Heavy

Pros:

- Great Picture Quality
- Lightweight
- Simple Controls

Love it.
I have been using this lens quite a bit now and find it ti be flawless. Very well made and sturdy but a bit heavy but I don't mind. I would recommend this lens to any amateur photograph.

Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM Contemporary
I've seen the review here which mentions Chromatic Aberration / Purple Fringing being not too well-controlled, but try as I might, I am unable to make this lens produce significant visible evidence of CA . I'm testing it on an EOS 80D, shooting RAW, Adobe Color Space.
Pros:
- Convenient focal-length range for a go-to carry-everywhere lens
- Excellent sharpness throughout, Well-controlled CA, Silky feel to the zoom ring, No front-element rotation during A/F, Looks great, Light and compact, but not too light
Cons:
- No manual-focus over-ride
- Focus ring rotates during A/F

Phenomenal lens
I purchased this lens to replace my standard kit lens that was originally included when I purchased my camera. I can say that after testing the new lens that I am well impressed by the build quality and the resolution of the pictures that are sharp in colour and clarity.
