Sigma 18-35 F1.8 to Suit Canon

[Deactivated] on 09/01/2016 - 10:38

Hey guys..

Finally know the type of photography I like and fairly keen on the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8. Only negative I can find is the hit and miss autofocus on some units.

At this stage the cheapest appears to be Gerry Gibbs Camera House at $799 or if I can be patient and wait a month JBHIFI can order one in for $750.

Anyone know of any retailers that I may have missed that have it going for a better price?

    I bought one in October (DCW) and I'm happy with mine. It's not an Canon L series but for just under a grand, it's a good lens that I've enjoyed.

      Thanks for the feedback :), I'll assume your unit doesn't have any AF issues

        No, mine has been really good. Pretty fast, not too bad in low light. It would be nice if it could focus a little closer as a quasi macro, but it's not what its designed to do.

      Aren't these guys not the best to purchase from?

    FYI, These are crop sensor only.

      Yep.. One of the nicest lens for crop cameras in this focal range..

      Don't see myself going full frame

        I wasn't having a go at the lens, nor crop sensor cameras. Just giving people the heads up so they don't have to waste time and click links to access that rather relevant information.
