 Decent Zoom Lens November 2, 2008
Kyle Seis (Antigo, WI USA)
This lens is fairly good for it's low price tag. It has quite a bit of zoom range, which is the main reason I bought it. It is rather slow, but can generally get the job done. I used this lens to shoot a high school soccer game and football game for the school newspaper and yearbook. I got some great soccer results, and got some decent football shots from the students section at night. If you are looking for a low priced zoom lens, try this one out.
 Great, Great, Great! October 30, 2008
Lisandro Carcamo (Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina)
I am so happy with this product, that people might think that I am the owner of Sigma!
The quality of this lens is wonderful. Its price very accessible, and it is very useful!
Auto Focus is fast and accurate and the lens is sturdy and comfortable.
With it you can take pictures and middle and long distances!
Along with the 18mm-55mm lens that I already have, is an ideal complement for almost any occasion.
I'm very very very happy!
It is a purchase that, not only I do not regret, but I would recommend to anyone!
Nice lens October 15, 2008
Giles R. Holbrow (Boston)
I just got this, and so far I am very satisfied. I wish the aperture was a little better, but I can't complain for the price. Overall, it is very good deal, and I would recommend it to anyone who can't afford a faster lens.
Great lens at the right price September 30, 2008
R. Brady (Syracuse, NY)
I'm not a photographic expert, but this lens meets my needs and was at a good price. Well built not cheap feeling or looking. Works well with the Canon Rebel Digital that I have. Is a good addition to the standard lens that came with the camera.

I purchased the lens to take sports pics of my kids. The lens does well for this, but there are times when I would like it to be a little quicker.
