Great Lens; but I got it off EhBay
47th street photo was good on the phone; I went directly to them and used their RMA not newegg's. The first time.
Pros:
- Great lens
- at least the one off EhBay
Cons:
- The first Canon I ordered was out of stock
- then I was sent a Pentax 3 times

Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 IF EX DG HSM
Sigma has quietly been strengthening its professional lens range with new models aimed at full-frame DSLRs. Not only has the company added a number of pro-worthy large-aperture primes but they've also taken the opportunity to revisit the constant-aperture zooms.

Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 IF EX DG HSM
On paper, the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 IF EX DG HSM ($899 direct) is an appealing alternative to similar full-frame zoom lenses. Available for Sigma, Sony, Pentax, Canon, and Nikon cameras , it's roughly half the price of the Canon, Nikon, and Sony takes on the same design.
Pros:
- Inexpensive
- Compact
- Fixed f/2.8 aperture
- Sharp when stopped down
Cons:
- Disappointing resolution at f/2.8
- Some distortion

Perfect addition for full frame projects
This lens really has the range and sharpness I was looking for with I purchased the Sony A850. I just upgraded to full frame and am very pleased with the results I have been getting shooting landscapes and portraits. Always been a Sigma Lens fan and this is one of the best.
Pros:
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Strong Construction

For this high price I expect highest quality from f 2,8 and not middle quality up to f 8 My cheap soligor 3,5-4,5/28-70 is when stopped down to f4,5 much more sharper in the corners on 28mm. Too many plastic elements therein
Pros:
- stopped down a few quite good optical qualities in the center colors and cantrast really ok
Cons:
- the corners are not real sharp in infinity position I testet f 4,5 on 28mm:stong chromatic aberrations in the corners and double contures
- not to use for big posters of architecture without intensive sharpening by photoshop because of these mistakes

Let's face the facts. This is not a Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L and if you expect it to be, than you will be disappointed. If you want a very good 24-70mm f2.8, that preforms very well, this is it! It is not weather proof. It misses focus occasionally. f2.8 is not as sharp as f4 on.
Pros:
- Price
Cons:
- If you are expecting a Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L
- forget it

Great lens. Great price
High quality at a much better price than the options. I needed a good lens for team pictures and indoor action shots. This lense combined with my 70-200mm f2.8 fills the void for all my sports and family pictures. Saved about $1,500 from the Oem version and don't think I sacrificed on quality.
