sigma_400_f5-6Sigma 400 f/5.6 HSM Apo Macro

Pros: Lightweight, slightly larger than a 70-200 f4 F5.6

Cons: Sharpness, prone to damage, very fragile tripod mount, only f 5.6

Opinion: Bought used for 67 (sixty-seven) euros in a flea market. What can I say, I probably wouldn't have spent more than 150 euros. Being dated and not HSM you can use it (on 6D, on analog cameras instead it is normally used) only at f 5.6 in manual mode, setting the ISO. It has major front/back focus problems. Even if you do the fine calibration, you get high every 3/4 outputs. Sometimes with +10 it's fine, sometimes at 0, sometimes at -10. The ring for the tripod breaks, so it's best not to use it. Slow and noisy focusing, better use the manual. That said, one shot out of 10 leaves you speechless, sharpness really superior to TA (even necessarily, it must always be at 5.6 otherwise it appears err01 and does not click. Is it worth it? I would say no, but if you find it at a real opportunity like mine I wouldn't miss it. Especially considering that if you pay little you can take it everywhere, in fact I'm not afraid of it falling or breaking. Summary: it is a lens that gives a lot of problems, but that every now and then will make you desist from selling it, as in my case. Vote 6, just because one, shot out of ten is almost on par with the more famous Canon, but at a price, decidedly different
