By George A. Yaklitch
A very good deal. For a few dollors more, you can get a top quality lens, some filters, lens kit and screen protection films. As with all Sigma lens, the picture quality is excellent. I agree with other reviews that at 300 mm, it is difficult not to get some blur, but not impossible. It comes down to shutter speed. A higher ISO setting tends to help and naturally a monopod or tripod is best. All in all, for the money, I have no complaints and if anything goes wrong, I have a 6 year warranty.

Sigma 28-300mm :(
By Adam R. Weatherly
Well i got this lens about a month ago, and well im not to happy with it. all of my images come out soft/fuzzy using both auto and manual focus, it does not work well in low light situations, and i dont believe it goes to a true 300mm. I have a vivitar 70-210mm and it zooms in closer that the sigma 28-300mm does, and it produces better quality images. The only good thing about this lens is that it is built sturdy, its heavy, and the macro feature works great. I used this lens to shoot some portraits for a client and had to reshoot all of them with a different lens because of the poor quality the lens produces. I would not recommend this lens. It would be worth while to save the money and buy a canon lens.
