I just bought a Sony A77M2 body with a Tamron 90 mm Macro to do a lot of copy work in addition to normal family photos. The Tamron is fantastic, but I overlooked that on a copy stand the field of view is only about 4x6 inches. So I added the Sigma 50mm f2.8 macro which will cover a 8.5 x 11 photo or document ( and smaller). The sharpness is everything one could want, and I needed the focus limiter switch for the copy stand. But the rest of the story is I like this Sigma coupled with the A77II even better than the Sony 16-50 f2.8 kit lens for outdoor travel. The Sigma is about 70mm (35 equivalent) and great for people pictures, and incredible close focusing and is lighter and easier to handle than the Sony zoom. It auto focuses very fast, I was very pleasantly ... MoreI just bought a Sony A77M2 body with a Tamron 90 mm Macro to do a lot of copy work in addition to normal family photos.

Purchased for general use as a 50mm normal lens, and macro work. Used with Canon Digital Rebel and 5D MkII bodies. Initial use on my 1.6 crop factor Digital Rebel body showed good, but not great results. The 5D MkII full frame sensor body exhibited better results, but not as good as I had hoped! After examing numerous pictures taken with the 5D MkII body, it was apparent the lens was front-focusing I ended up setting the focus microadjustment to +5 (toward back) on my 5D MkII body, and the image quality is now excellent and actually better than I had expected. I also noticed degradation when using an old (but good!) Hoya Skylight filter, which seemed to cause the focus to revert back to front-focusing.

This Sigma 50mm macro lens is capable of producing extremely high quality images, but is very sensitive to mis-focusing. I had no difficulties with autofocus other than the slight front-focusing on all pictures, which I resolved with the body microadjustment. Focusing at far and macro distances is now extremely accurate, but can be slow. For macro work it is generally better to focus manually, so you can center your depth of field. The hood is OK and will accept a 72mm lens cap, unlike what some others say! Use 55mm filters on the front of the lens, and NOT on the hood! Placing a 72mm filter on the front of the hood will create flare issues! The image sharpness produced with my microadjusted Canon 5D MKII is fantastic and uniform from center to edge at all apertures, from infinity to 1:1 Macro: F2.8 VG F4.0 VG to Excellent F5.6 Excellent F8.0 Excellent F11 Excellent F16 VG to Excellent F22 VG F32 & 45 F to P (Don't know why Sigma even included this capability!)

I have been using this lens for a range of projects since i bought it some 3 weeks ago. It has really amazed me with how compitantly it has coped with the situations I have been in. Image quality is clear and sharp within the given depth of field at the time once outside that it tends to fall off fairly sharply but this is to be expected from a macro lens. Colours are good and accurate. So far I have not noticed any lens graining or softness with any of the projects. Speed of focusing is not its strongest feature but it is not bad at all for a non USM or HSM lens. It is very good at accurate focusing which is so important with Macro or portrate photography. Manual focusing is also sonething that is easy and precise for the lens at this proce range. I find the lens ... MoreI have been using this lens for a range of projects since i bought it some 3 weeks ago.

I find the lens is a good weight and size for a compact carry round macro lens and not once has it hindered my photography. Its comparisions are fairly obviosu with lenses in all manufacturers ranges from tamron to Nikon and Canon. I personally use Canon kit and I had considered a range of macro lenses before going for this one. They included the EF-S 60mm and EF - 100 mm and the sigma 105mm all of which are more expensive (by a significant amount in most cases) and i feel that I have compromised on nothing worth debating on this lens. Well for me anyway. If you are looking for a macro lens, pure, that deals well with insect and wildlife macro work then this is not the one for you. But for a good quality, solid, reliable lens that can be used for more than one purpose and gives sharp, clear and accurate pictures but can'y afford L range lenses prices then I see you only have this as an option. The projects that I have done in this time is 3 sets of portraits, 3 outside night time building shoots, 1 set of macro flower shoots, 5 portfolio (farm equiptment and housing stock photos) all handeled with ease. For the pirce of this lens it is amazing. If you have got the money you will prefer to have the USM type motors but if you don't you will get just as good a result from this fantastic value for money lens.

This is a superb macro lens; perfect for a beginner. Colour reproduction is brilliant, the image is pin-sharp, even when shooting wide-open at f/2.8. It's a true macro lens, with 1:1 image reproduction, and the minimum focus distance is so short you can basically put the lens right up against your subject. It has a filter thread on the front, so you can attach a filter - or you can attach a ring flash in order to better illuminate your subject. Even better, you can use this lens as a normal prime lens - it retains the ability to focus to infinity. This makes it a decent lens for portraiture, as 50mm is a good focal length on full-frame cameras and an ideal focal length on APS-C cameras for portrait work. The downsides are that the lens barrel extends quite far ... MoreThis is a superb macro lens; perfect for a beginner.

This makes it a decent lens for portraiture, as 50mm is a good focal length on full-frame cameras and an ideal focal length on APS-C cameras for portrait work. The downsides are that the lens barrel extends quite far whilst focusing - this can cause problems when focusing on something close by - this is the *only* reason this lens gets 4 stars and not 5. There is no image stabilization or weather sealing. The autofocus motor is a bit noisy and fairly slow. These last issues are not a problem when you consider how cheap this lens is. The upsides are that it's relatively cheap, and gets you a superb quality image whether you're using it for up-close macro work, or as a general purpose lens. The zoom ring turns easily and smoothly and manually focusing with this lens is very easy to do. While the autofocus is noisy and slow, it is at least accurate. You can shoot macro shots with this lens hand-held - no problem.
I am overall satisfied with this lens. The build-quality is quite good and the finish is nice. The zoom is reversed for Nikon, which takes some getting used to.My used copy seemed to have noticeable back-focus. Dialing in -15 fine tune seemed to clear it up. Seems like it back focuses the worst at 18mm. On the long end, it actually front focuses a bit. But with the AF fine tune I get good results in real life settings. Focus charts will drive you crazy if you play with them long enough.Definitely soft at 18mm f2.8. Zoom in to about 19mm and it is noticeably better. Overall, not as tack sharp at 2.8 as I had hoped, but definitely useable. If you nail the focus, it is quite impressive in the center of the frame. I'd be curious to compare to the Tamron 17-50 ... MoreI am overall satisfied with this lens. The build-quality is quite good and the finish is nice.

I'd be curious to compare to the Tamron 17-50 directly.The "Macro" feature is pretty cool. you can almost touch an object with the front element and it still focuses. The HSM motor is quick and quiet, but not silent like my Nikkors. When it micro-adjusts at the end, there is a bit of a soft crunchy noise from the motor compared to the whirl sound during normal focus. This is audible if you're taking video. But for video, manual focus is better anyway.Get yourself a new lens cap. The outside tabs make it impossible to take off the cap with the hood on. Get a center pinch replacement.
Very nice bit of kit, nice weight with solid metal construction, the focus is smooth at auto and manual and it delivers nice sharp images. The f/2.8 is stunning allowing the point of focus to really stand out against a nicely blurred background. Picture quality is slightly reduced at f/2.8 but anything above f/4 and I've achieved needle sharpness on a par with my Vivitar Series 1 which is actually quite something considering the Vivitar cost around four times more than the Sigma! You get what you pay for and for an entry level macro the Sigma holds it's own very well, I've printed up to A4 at f/2.8 with absolutely no problems at all, anything bigger and I think I'd need to stop down to really achieve crisp sharpness so I would imagine you could easily get an A3 from ... MoreVery nice bit of kit, nice weight with solid metal construction, the focus is smooth at auto and manual and it delivers nice sharp images.

The reason I wanted this was to get as much as I could in the shot at life size on the sensor. Most 1:1 macro lenses are in the region of 105mm, this gives you a narrow slice of object at macro magnification, but by using a 50mm lens you get a lot MORE in your shot at 1:1 Think of this kind of lens as a wide angle macro, that's the best way I can suggest you think of this lens, lots in the shot at macro magnification. Sharpness, its good, colour rendition is good (I bought the DG digital version). This lens performs about the same as the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 macro and that lens is often rated as being a really good lens. I often read people saying the non HSM / USM lenses are slow to focus and noisy. To that I reply these macro lenses have a massive amount of travel to ... MoreThe reason I wanted this was to get as much as I could in the shot at life size on the sensor.

I often read people saying the non HSM / USM lenses are slow to focus and noisy. To that I reply these macro lenses have a massive amount of travel to find correct focus, one slight move and the shot is out of focus. A lens this short 50mm is unlikely to be used for bugs are anything small that moves as the working distance is short, so use the lens for what its best at and you have a great piece of kit at a silly cheap price. Regarding noisy, you know I never really even thought about the noise on any lens until I read people saying noisy lenses.. its just what it does! get over it... The only time the noise may be offensive is in a church or library!! other than that, what the heck! it adds to the character! So in summary: Great lens for 'wide angle' 1: macro work Silly cheap price Good image quality Good overall performance Not L performance, but it really is quite good. The shortest focal length true 1:1 macro? I don't think there is anything 1:1 shorter than 50mm? so this places this lens in a unique position. I like it, for the price, I don't think I'll ever get rid of it. I can think of many situations where I can use macro close focusing and would want as wide an angle of image as possible. That's what you would buy this lens for. Non moving objects, wide angle, close-up photography. Use it for this and you'll be quite happy. Expect any of the following and you will not be happy: Canon L performance USM / HSM silence So, its an honest lens giving an honest performance that has a unique position to give 'wide angle' macro shots. Please remember, when I say wide angle, that is IN RELATION to all other macro lenses which tend to be 70mm, 100mm, 105mm, 150mm, 180mm making the 50mm the widest TRUE 1:1 macro lens available. I hope this helps you decide if you would find this lens useful or not for your requirements.
I'm very impressed with this lens. I have used many different lenses, including some genuine high-end Nikkors, and this Sigma will rank right there near the top. In optical quality alone it seems to be pretty hard to improve on. There might be a slight bit of CA discernible at 100% magnification on some shots with extreme color/brightness transitions, but in most cases one will have to look really hard to find any fault with the image quality, -- so it is just plain nit-picking. It is sharp straight from f2.8. The bokeh is very creamy, and the color transitions and tones are very natural and just beautiful. The contrast is very good too. I haven't noticed any flare either. On a camera with a DX sensor this lens becomes also a 75mm portrait lens in addition to being ... MoreI'm very impressed with this lens.

On a camera with a DX sensor this lens becomes also a 75mm portrait lens in addition to being a macro. The AF speed is very reasonable for a macro lens, and there is a focus limiter. The lens is compact and gives an impression of being very solidly built, -- there is nothing in the construction or materials that feels cheap to me. I have one minor design gripe: the lens hood is a screw-in type, and when it is on, one can't use the supplied 55mm lens cap. So, if you don't want to hassle with screwing and unscrewing the hood all the time just to put on the front cap, -- get a 72mm lens cap, -- it fits perfectly on the hood. The copy of the lens I got required a moderate AF fine tune adjustment (-6) to get AF perfectly on target. I can imagine that if I had a camera without the AF fine tune feature I could be very disappointed in this lens, -- as it is this is a non-issue for me, so I'm not going to deduct any points for this. Overall, I'm VERY pleased with this lens, and if you also factor in a very moderate price, it is really a gem hard to pass.
This is a great lens for a normal, if you have full frame, or portrait if a DX sized sensor and for macro with reasonable setback distance. Note that the AF will only work on bodies with the focus motor in the body, not the newer ones made for lens with the focus motors in the lens. However, for macro you probably want to manual focus anyway and the focus ring is very nice, with nice grip and it's wide. Goes to f/32.
I'm an amateur and this is the first lens I've purchased for my Canon 6D. Overall it's definitely a WIN -- like the title says, the images are quite sharp and I really enjoy the macro ability. I find the 50mm focal length to be intriguing; I've only tried it for tight portrait-type shots so far, and it's done a great job with them. Bokeh is gorgeous. My only gripe is the auto focus: it's slow, loud, and, well, bad at focusing. If I had to rely on the auto focus, I'd certainly miss too many shots to even bother with this lens. Luckily, there's a manual focus and I'll probably just use that all the time.
This standard macro lens enables you to enjoy the communication with subject. When viewing through the cameras finder, you are able to move your subject, and make precise adjustment. It has a close working distance and it is very convenient for taking close-up pictures of a fossil, or other inanimate things for example. This lens would have an equivalent field of view of an 85mm macro lens on a digital SLR camera.
