cameras. MACRO 105mm F2.8 EX DG allows greater working distance between the lens and subject. High contrast and excellent image quality are made possible in all shooting ranges. This macro lens is ideal for digital SLR cameras as well as film SLR cameras. This new medium telephoto macro lens employs a new design concept for digital SLR cameras. Its new lens power layout produces an excellent optical performance and also reduces flare and ghosting. This new lens is designed to reduce the influence of harmful light caused by reflections from the digital image sensor. An easy to use 105mm medium telephoto lensThe narrow angle of view is a great aid for simplifying backgrounds and shallow depth of field makes it easier to handle the composition. This lens would have an equivalent field of view of a 178mm telephoto macro lens on a digital SLR camera (when used with the SD10). Minimum aperture of F/45 Depth of field of medium telephoto macro lenses is generally very shallow- however Sigma- Canon and Konica Minolta mounts of this lens have a minimum aperture of F/45 (or F32 for Nikon and Pentax mounts) for incredible depth of field. Screw-in lens hoodA screw-in hood is included- for convenient use of circular polarizing filters. It is possible to attach a 77mm filter in front of the lens hood. Dual Focus (DF) system This lens also incorporates a Dual Focus (DF) system that is designed to make the lens easy to hold during auto focusing. The large focus ring offers smooth and positive action whilst focusing manually.

"I know, I've got a million pix of my children and cat, now I'll photograph flowers and insects with a macro lens, whatever that is".
Don't kid yourself; the whole idea of this lens is to get close-up and personel with your subject matter (insects and flowers being two of my favs). If your looking for a mid-sized telephoto lens just to add to your camera bag, go and by a mid-sized zoom lens. Macro photography is not for the faint-hearted. It requires patience, skill and an understanding beyond that of the family photo album. But the rewards are excellent.
With a good, solid build quality and good optics; it is worth buying if you can't afford a pro quality macro lens. It's a bit slow on auto focus, but if you shooting macro the chances are that the subject is pretty still. I use mine most days.
