Sigma EX zoom lens - 10 mm - 20 mm

...Canon and 17-34mm on a Sigma DSLR - not quite the classic 16-35mm range but near enough nonetheless and, a valuable and versatile addition to anyone's APS-C based kit. This of course is a Sigma DC lens and as such, is suitable only for the APS-C sized cropped sensor DSLR's. It cannot be used on full-frame or 35mm cameras. The EX designation stands for 'Excellence', Sigma's designation for their professional quality lenses and it's feel and finish ...
...all apertures? Unlike Canon, Sigma DO include a proper lens hood (petal type), along with a nice soft bag. Bravo Sigma! A hood is essential with such wide angle lenses and it is good to see Sigma leading the way here. The lens isn't particularly prone to flare which is surprising with it's construction of 14 elements in 10 groups. However, once you see the specification, you will become aware that quite a bit of effort has gone into making this ...

Review of Sigma EX zoom lens - 10 mm - 20 mm

The Sigma 10-20mm EX lens is a low-to-mid priced lens, aimed at the amateur/enthusiast market and available in the usual Canon and Nikon mounts. I own the Canon-fit, so all information contained in this review is in relation to that lens. For anyone interested in landscape photography, a wide-angle lens is a must-have piece of equipment.

It may feel surprisingly heavy for those users previously used to buying at the cheaper end of the lens market. The lens mount is metal, meaning this is a lens built to last and the zoom and focus rings move easily, but with enough resistance to avoid any creep - important at this level of zoom. The important aspect of any lens, of ...

Review of Sigma EX zoom lens - 10 mm - 20 mm

...in shops. The 10-20mm by sigma is a fantastic wide angle lens for the price - many wide angle lenses don't go down as far as 10mm but when shelling out money for a wide angle lens my thought was to find the widest possible for the best price and this was it. The lens doesn't let you down in other areas either - the image quality is superb (no visible chromatic abberation). To hold the lens is a good weight and feels well made. The lens is capable ...
...not a quality everyone will appreciate. From it's early days sigma has made great advances in the quality of it's products which really shows through with this lens. For someone on a budget who doesn't want to sacrifice a huge amount of quality - this is the lens to get. ...
