Not bad, but not for me.

This lens did give me good, sharp images- once I figured it out. I bought this primarily for real estate interiors and urbex photography. One of the very first things I noticed about this lens, was it gave dark images.

Sigma AF 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 DC HSM (DX) - Review / Lab Test Report

The Sigma AF 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 DC HSM may be the new star in this lens segment. It's very sharp across the whole range straight from the max. aperture. Lateral CAs are also very well controlled. That's quite an achievement for such an extreme ultra-wide angle zoom lens.

This lens is a joy to use. I have taken some great photos with it. I have it's big brother, the 12-24 V2 and it is easily as good as that, if not better, but on a Canon crop it is equivalent to 13-26, not 12-24.I still don't understand why people on this forum give poor ratings to what is obviously...
Pros:
  • Compact and light
  • fast to focus
  • razor sharp
  • image quality
  • build quality
Cons:
  • None

Wide-angle lenses are essential for landscape photography, which is one of, if not the most popular, photographic genre. So when a brand new ultra wide-angle lens hits the shelves it's always going to be of interest to many of us.
