This lens was designed for the Sigma sd Quattro and sd Quattro H, Foveon cameras which outresolve full frame cameras with ~40MP pixel count. There probably is no better zoom lens for APS sized cameras.
Please I hope you can answer me.. I have two lenses from this category Sigma 50 _1.4 Sigma 18_35 Which is better for photographing dates and some foodstuffs? Do you recommend another lens? Thank you
Have you noticed any inconsistency during focusing? Like back focusing? I know, you said that it's very good, but many other sources say that sigma lenses have a back focusing issue on DSLRs. That is less of an issue on mirroless bodies, as I have heard from others.
It's a third-party lens, at the end of the day, so it would be a good idea to fork out a little more to buy the Sigma dock. I have an excellent Tamron macro lens (90mm SP 2.8) which was front focusing slightly on my Canon 90D. When I bought it from Adorama, they threw in the Tamron equivalent for free, and I was able to fix the focusing problem without too much trouble. I think that when we buy third-party lenses, autofocusing adjustments are just one of those things that you have to deal with.
@@apurv_kumar it was too havy (for me). And i had already a nikon 18-140 and the 18 sigma was shorter than my nikon. My nikon was wider. .. so back to the shop. I wanted a wide Lens for auroras. At the end i fond a Tokina 11-16 f2.8 lighter for me.
Who cares about the weight? Quality overrules weight, after all we are men and less than a kilo I couldn’t care less. I would have give it a higher rating for weight.
Please stop saying "I must say" so much, if I drank a shot every time you said it I'd die from alcohol poisoning, also you didn't mention the severe chromatic aberration at the corners at 18mm

Thanks! Also helped me in my decision to buy it. I like the comparison between the lenses! That's a good idea.
loved the video 😋, one question though...is it sharper than the canon 50mm f1.8 ?
Hi. Do you think this produces better quality and sharper images than the Canon 50mm f1.8?
Next on the list. Great video! Keep 'em coming!

Yup that autofocus hunting is a nightmare, the thing just can't focus unless you take time and manually focus.
You will probably will be perfectly fine with new modern apsc cameras like the eos-m and rf systems
