For just over $200 this is a must have lens in any photographer's kit. The optics are excellent for such a cheap lens and the macro function is a nice bonus.

Works nicely to me
This seems to be a well built telephoto lens that gets the job done and makes to at least my eye, really great pictures. It feels sturdy. Weighs about as much as a telephoto would I suppose. I don\\\'t like the suede-like feel of it though. I would have preferred just regular smooth plastic.
Pros:
- Price
- solid
- pictures look good IMO
Cons:
- Maybe the feel to touch

Sigma Lens for Nikon
Bought this for the macro function and was really disappointed. Lens did focus and shoot decent pics in regular mode. Would be an ok lens for someone on a limited budget just don't expect to use the macro mode.
Pros:
- Sigma brand name
- great price
Cons:
- Didn't perform to expectations
- Lens wouldn't focus in macro mode, just continued to seek target

Great telephoto zoom lens
This is an APO version, still low price compared with Tamron and Pentax 70-300mm, sharp at 200mm, even at 300mm it is good. I used it to take many shots and like it. It even comes with a case. There's one problem with its rotated front glass, so may be trouble for CPL filter.
Pros:
- low price
- sharp at 200mm
- even at 300mm it is good
Cons:
- have not found so far

Good so far........
I haven't had a lot of time to play with the new lens yet to list any pros and cons. I am happy so far and the price is GREAT compared to other lenses. Very easy to exchange the lenses on the camera body.

Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Slow Focus

Sigma 70-300mm DG Macro
Sigma's 70-300mm has an impressive list of features but it also calls forth the warning that if something sounds too good to be true, then maybe that's exactly what it is. Its 70-300mm focal-length range may be more than many users will really need in an everyday tele-zoom but there is nothing wrong...
Pros:
- Multi-format image coverage
Cons:
- Very poor image quality at 300mm

Sigma 70-300mm f4-5.6 DL-M Motorized DG Macro Telephoto Zoom Lens with Built-in Motor Drive for Nikon SLR Cameras Including D40, D40X, D60
I shoot with a Nikon and this was the first lens I bought(Aside from the default lens, obviously). This lens has fantastic zooming and Macro settings. I can easily switch from Auto to Manual and yes, okay, it makes noise when it focuses.
