For all you consumers out there, I bought a Pentax FAJ 70-300, to see if it was as good as some of the reviews. This lens got a sort of mixed rap, but, it takes much better pictures with my k10d than the Sigma. The Sigma manual focus was tight in spots as it articulated, but it seemed to function properly.
I set up my tripod, mounted the camera and took pictures with just changing lenses, than going to my computer to ’see’ if the Pentax was indeed just a cheap film lens, not digital dedicated, with no redeeming money advantage. Wrong. Although, the Sigma lens arrived in a box that was big enough to let the lens box bounce around with absolutely nothing for packing, it may have been damaged in shipment. So maybe the lens is OK, and it was damaged in shipment or???? The FA turned out much clearer and sharper than the Sigma in a fair test, but maybe the Sigma was damaged. If it was not damaged, it sure was not worth the money. I did not want to spend the money to check this inexpensive lens for optics and the electrics of the motor. I took manually focused, and automatic. I found the Sigma wanting. I try to spend my money where it goes the furthest.

I think it is better if you can save your money and buy a better lens. This lens is OK, but it’s takes a long time to focus. If you want to take a picture of an animal, by the time that this lens focuses the animal is already gone. The macro is not what I had expected!! You can do a better macro photography by buying a +10 magnifying filter which costs $30 and use it on an 18-55 lens that comes with Nikon D40x and D40.

I had read many ‘glowing’ reviews re: this lens. . . so I ordered it. I even ck’d out some photos people had sent in, esp the sports photos. I couldn’t believe the clarity! HOWEVER THIS WAS NOT MY EXPERIENCE. Firstly, no one person mention they ever used a tripod for the longer length. Some even mentioned the camera was ‘handheld’. Well I found I could not take NOT ONE decent shot over 200 mm and not have it out of focus. Certainly setting up a tripod each time is not practical unless you’re into nature photography. Thats why the pictures of sports interested me. So I sent it back and determined to stick w/ a max of 200 focal length. Seriously considering Sigma 18-200 but would like to come down in price. I applaud those that took shots at 250-300 mm but apparently thats not for me.
Well constructed. Sorry it didn’t work out for my Canon 350D. Nice macro.
