  • Small and light for a ‘super-tele' zoom, Good handling and performance, Reasonably priced
  • Only the mounting ring is weather-sealed, Fairly narrow f/5-6.3 aperture rating, No tripod mount ring available
  • When a manageable size and weight are more important than outright telephoto reach, the Sigma 100-400mm offers a good compromise between budget 70-300mm lenses and whopping super-telephoto zooms. It's well-built, handles nicely and boasts some useful up-m...

  • Powerful telephoto reach, Fairly compact and lightweight, High-tech features,
  • No optional tripod mount ring, Sharpness could be better,
  • Picking up the baton from ‘compact' 70-300mm telephoto zooms, this full-frame compatible Sigma gives extended reach while maintaining a conveniently lightweight build. Although relatively small, it packs a range of fancy features and delivers very pleasin...

  • These days many shooters are obsessed with expensive, fast wide-aperture lenses but I find Sigma's design philosophy behind the 100-400mm's f/5-6.3 aperture range refreshing. Why? As the noise reduction capabilities of most DSLRs continue to improve, more...

  • Good price for the focal length range, Lightweight, but nicely built, Superb Stabilisation,
  • Vignetting at f/8, Relatively small maximum aperture, Variable aperture
  • Follow this link to view and download sample imagesWhile its f/5-6.3 aperture is a little more restricted than some other 100-400mm, the Sigma 100-400mm f5-6.3 DG OS C is significantly more affordable. It's also comparatively light for a lens of this foca...

  • Strong image quality, Optical stabilization, Full-frame coverage, Available for multiple systems, Compact and lightweight, Inexpensive
  • Weak edge performance at 100mm, Vignette at maximum aperture, Some distortion, No tripod collar option
  • The Sigma 100-400mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary is a solid option for anyone in the market for an affordable, lightweight telephoto lens...

  • Lack of problems with spherical aberration, Slight lateral chromatic aberration, Imperceptible longitudinal chromatic aberration, Moderate distortion, Excellent coma correction, Very low astigmatism, Low vignetting on the smaller APSC/DX sensor, Silent au
  • Distinct vignetting at longer focal lengths on full frame, A bit too many flares and losses of contrast during the work against bright light, Minimum focusing distance the worst in this class of equipment, Slow autofocus, When Sigma presented the C 100–40
  • I have to say once again Sigma surprised me quite nicely. Despite being a bit slower aperture-wise and, by default, weaker than the new lenses from Canon/Nikon when it comes to apertures and vignetting, it didn't have any problems to win a resolution duel...

  • Small and light, Very good sharpness and contrast across full-frame sensor even wide open, Versatile customization of AF and OS via USB-dock, Low price
  • Resistance against flare/glare/ghosting could be better, No tripod collar, Image stabilization at 400mm not very effective around 1/100 sec and 1/50 sec
  • If you like small and light, have a limited budget, and need the reach of a 400mm telephoto zoom, the new Sigma is your best choice: it is the cheapest, smallest and lightest modern zoom reaching 400mm plus it's sharp and has only minor color aberrations...
