Sigma has a released what looks to be a competitive option for a 100-400 lens. https://petapixel.com/2023/08/31/sigma-100-400mm-f-5-6-3-for-fujifilm-x-review-greatness-for-half-the-price/

So I bought a Sigma 300 2.8 with the thought that perhaps pairing it with the Sigma 2x TC I had might give me at least a servicable 600 5.6. And yes I know TC's generally degrade image quality more so than cropping would. I am gob-smacked.... This is mounted on the K3III, and using both the...

Didn’t notice a thread for this lens. I no longer own it, but I did enjoy it. They are becoming exceptionally affordable on the used market now, so thought I’d throw a few shot ups. I enjoyed the nice OOF rendering, although I found the greens a bit over saturated.

The Sigma DP0 has been out for 7 yrs this year. What's the verdict? Anyone here used it? I have to hand it to Sigma, they have really taken a chance with unique cameras over the past decade. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_dp0_Quattro What would you do if you need a super wide fix -...

This week I received my new Sigma 150-600mm for L-mount. I'm testing it now, but for use on a Lumix S1r there is still a lot to learn. Here is an example:

This is a nice lens. Not quite up to the Olympus 25mm f1.2 in sharpness, but as near as dammit to matter. What's more, the OOF blur is pretty close so subject isolation is similar. Here's one wide-open in awful light at ISO 6400: The Jazz Saxophonist by Paul Kaye, on Flickr And another...

The 65. Not 50 and not 85 which I thought could be perfect for me. I think I was right. And even if I'm not(it's only the first hour of sampling), the output, build and AF is wonderful. Price ain't bad either. Headshot crop.

I’m putting this thread in this sub forum because I’m interested in general by this class of do-it-all/travel lens. A fast zoom shorted at both ends but (hopefully) high quality. I’d be happy with 35 on the wide end. My question is would you consider a lens with a zoom range equivalent to this...

Just received this lens from the lovely people at Reddotcameras, London. I've bought it mainly for portrait and still life but took it for a walk on my original T this morning. Have to say mixed results. I've never had such a poor hit rate for focus using native Leica lenses. But when it's on...

Haven't had this one for a while, but it's a really sharp and cheap option for many.

Still testing the Sigma 45 2.8. I realize I do seem to have this obsession with testing lenses on groups of bottles in dark laboratories. So, far, I'm really liking the way this lens sees the world.

I bought this lens a few months ago as a 1/2 price special from the Aussie agent. At the time I couldn't stretch to the Panasonic 20mm f1.7. I've since picked up a 20mm and can't find any love for the 30mm. Can anyone suggest why I should keep the 30? On m4/3 it is equiv to 60mm - perhaps it...

Slightly cropped, both taken with the 30 1.4 stopped down, lens firmware upgraded to the v03 and AF is about the same or faster than the Sony 50mm 1.8 OSS lens, which is not ideal for fast moving subjects.

Hi Folks - My Sigma 45mm f2.8 arrived today. I've been without an autofocus lens on my Leica CL for over a year. So far this new lens addition is performing exceptionally. 'Thought I'd post some early grab shots, (most with very familiar image subjects. :rolleyes-74:). Also a screen shot from...

First of all, this is just me rambling as an outsider to the Sigma ecosystem(? maybe plural, ecosystems?), but I've always really liked Sigma for their daring, outside the box attitude, and the way they in-house everything. We need more companies who aren't beholden to shareholders and can look...

Lately I've been researching all the various wide angle lenses you can get for a modern DSLR. After shooting mirrorless for awhile and witnessing the smallness and simplicity of compact M-mount wide angle glass, especially the Voigtlander 15mm f/4.5 Heliar lens, I've been searching for a DSLR...

Out yesterday in Phoenix with the car after a good wash and stopped to get a few shots. A6000 and 28mm Sigma MF. Wrong time of the day though, 1:00 in the afternoon so I did my best. That early afternoon sun is harsh ;-)

So I finally got around to replacing my 25" 2560x1440 Dell monitor with a LG 27UD58 27" 4K one. I find that the prices are reasonable now, and spending a lot of time looking at photos and working with photos I felt I could justify the expense. Fortulately my wife agreed :D At first I was...

I wish Sigma would make their 60mm f2.8 DN lens in Fuji mount. I would buy that lens in a heartbeat.

I had one of these years ago and liked it for casual portraits. I'm interested in acquiring a similar range lens for my

Well, it's May 1st, so Seattle gets to go through "Anarchists breaking shit" day. Basically 300-400 cops get a bunch of overtime for babysitting would be revolutionaries. It starts out as a peaceful march through the city and always (ALWAYS!) ends with these folks doing some petty mayhem and...

Sigma DP2 Quattro. Harbor Island near West Seattle, WA. 15s, ISO200, F/8. The export has a lot more noise than the original. Need to work out how to handle noise with the Quattro. Very little post, even though it looks very painterly. The Quattro long-exposure is fickle as hell. Sometimes you...

Hi, today I took pictures with my DP2 which was updated this morning with firmware version 1.05. All images are too dark, dial setting P. How to solve this issue? Tips and replies are welcome, thanks in advance.

Sigma SD1 Merrill and 70-300mm DG OS. Golden Gardens Beach, Seattle, WA, USA.

So, after owning (and mostly loving) the Sigma DP Merrill cameras, I decided I would create a camera dichotomy: 1) A Sony RX10 mkii which is likely the most technically sophisticated, easy-to-use, compact, and multi-purpose camera ever made. It produces detailed, clinically accurate files with...

Hi guys, I love the original Sigma DP1 and DP2, and still use them from time to time as I really enjoy the transparent clarity and sparkle of the images. There's something about the way the raw files in SPP have a unique look in the shadows and highlights. I'm about to buy one of the last...
