Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Previously, I periodically used Sigma televisions, and thought that more was not needed. For a long time he did not dare to buy, but still overcame himself and bought it. Now for me this is lens number 1. If you wish, you can catch swallows on the fly with it, and this lens succeeds (to understand the complexity of the process - a small bird that flies fast enough and often unpredictably changes its trajectory every 2-3 seconds) . This is one of those lenses when, before using them, it seems…

Pros
  • - Sharp, especially if there is enough light, during the day on the street - not really sharp! - Fast focus. If you switch to focus mode from 3 meters, focusing becomes almost instantaneous. - Image quality! - The quality of the lens itself. - Adjustment of the effort of the lens travel: when shooting horizontally - you can weaken it as much as possible, and the rotation of the zoom ring becomes almost imperceptible, with a slight movement of your fingers you move away and approach the subject as quickly as possible. - Additional ring - to which you can assign any tasks. -We can say that it is compact at such a range of focal lengths. - Simply handsome.
Cons
  • - In low light, focusing is no longer as fast and clear. But this is more of a feature than a drawback. - They say that it is heavy, but I myself am far from fragile, and for me it does not seem much heavier than 24-70.

The best thing for the money, Im glad I chose this option.

After 70–200, I wanted something more telephoto. The choice of RF lenses at the end of 2022 is not so great - RF 600, RF 800 or RF 100-500. But I wanted the lens to focus from 90 cm, and not from a few meters, so I settled on RF 100-500. Of course, I compared it with the EF 100-400, primarily in terms of aperture ratio. So, characteristics 100-400 in parentheses, RF 100-500 in square brackets. F 4.5 (100–135), [100–151]; F 5.0 (135–312), [151–254]; F 5.6 (312–400), [254–363]; F 6.3 [363–472]; F

Pros
  • Instant autofocus, high sharpness.
Cons
  • The extender works at focal lengths of 300-500mm, although extenders are generally best avoided.

Disappointing zoom lens for photography

Through trial and error, I found that the autofocus is slow and inaccurate, making it difficult to capture fast moving objects. The image quality is also lacking, resulting in blurry and washed out shots. The only positive aspect of this lens is its lightweight design. However, it still doesn't justify the steep price tag. Overall, I would not recommend this to any photography enthusiast.

Pros
  • Lightweight design
Cons
  • Slow and inaccurate autofocus, poor image quality
