Pros: Small, solid and well-built, exceptional sharpness for a superzoom even at TA, fast focus and silent

Cons: It does not have full-time manual focus, not very effective stabilizer

Opinion: Zoom all-rounder very versatile and powerful. I find it well built, compact and light, slightly larger than a 18-55 kit, the barrels are well fried and does not suffer at all from "zoom creep". The sharpness is very high even enlarging the photos to 100%, excellent color rendering and good contrast. Closing it by a stop results exceptional results at all focal points, even at 200mm the yield is very satisfactory, you do not notice any drops of contrast or sharpness. The focus is fast and I thought it was quite precise, even with very little light (but here also comes the excellent AF module of my Nikon D7200). The stabilizer is not very powerful, and at least on my D7200 the effect of sight stabilization is not visible (in the photos you can see it). Like the 17-50 2.8, on Nikon I get the bug of previewing the photos that remain on the screen, unless I press any button. The vignette is evident a little to all the focal points, which can be solved by closing the diaphragm a little or with photo editing programs that with a click eliminate or minimize any optical defects. The chromatic aberrations are not obvious, my specimen has an excellent collimation, and blurring point objects not known coma or other type of anomalies that would suggest an untreated optical system. The bokeh is a bit "nervous", especially when it concerns subjects with tree-lined backgrounds and with many details. If you detach the plans more, however, you don't notice much. Obviously the price to pay to have a zoom of these features and compact is the brightness, at 200mm closes at f6.3. Anyway using it during the day or with flash you will not have any problems whatsoever. It does not have full-time manual focus, the AF dial spins during focus (which is silent and fast), however the front element does not move, so there are no problems in using filters such as polarizers or graduated. In conclusion, I was very impressed by the sharpness and the rendering of the colors, I did not think that an 18-200 could be so sharp and satisfying. It is light, well built, with a beautiful metal attachment and a very well made satin finish. It is also programmable with the special usb dock (great for updating the firmware and to correct any back/front focus issues at various focal points and distances). I'm very happy to have him (re)bought it, I don't know how the older brother goes 18-300, as far as this, a nice 9 deserves it.

Pros: Excellent sharpness, lightness and compactness. Reduced filter diameter, effective stabilizer.

Cons: Sensitive to the cold, my copy below zero degrees struggles to focus during the first attempts after ignition. Noisy stabilizer. Minimum diaphragm at 6.3 after 125 mm.

Opinion: Successful goal! It's perfect for light outings: I use it together with a canon eos 200d and i take it everywhere even when I practice cross-country skiing... Very constant sharpness... amazing considering the price range! Sigma is both innovative and commercially clear: thanks to the art, sport and contemporary series, each of us can move easily in the choice.

Pros: Great steady stability from 18 to 200 at TA, construction, dimensions, price ratio, stabilization, bokeh, compatible with the Sigma Dock USB

Cons: Not detectable for a Superzoom

Opinion: I needed a superzoom for light outputs to match my fix kit and zoom 2.8. Obviously, you can not take the quality of fixed and zoom from this little excursion to this kind of goal. But this optic has not succeeded, moreover, as well as all the Sigma A, C and S optics. It has excellent clarity at all openings and all focuses and the stabilizer is excellent. The construction is great, the smoothness of the rings is very pleasant, the keys are very sharp, the hood is great. All this in the size of an 18-55. What to say highly advised, my had the correct maf. For the sake of taking it I compared it to Sigma 18-300 C: Bigger and Heavy, Fear of 300mmrn-Nikon 18-200 VR or VR II Micromax: Lower Image Quality, Printable Quality.

Pros: Versatility, good definition and crisp even in complex, light and well built but not sealed. Beautiful colors. Good price.

Cons: Some aberrations and 200mm few pictures I was not convinced.

Opinion: I wanted a lens that had a good value for money and I found it. To read and outputs without being so much to ponder and disassemble objectives, rather than big money spender in bridge or compact high board I preferred this for my nikon d300 and I was not disappointed. Having only fixed I was a bit "tired". Small lightweight fast in focus beautiful colors and beautiful detail even in close-up shots. Some aberrations at all openings and in critical light conditions and 200mm few photos was not quite clear, in that range of focal length is not simple. Promoted, also for the good price and quality.

Pros: I bought this lens a few days and I must say it is giving me satisfaction for the sharpness and speed of focus

Cons: is not weather sealed

Opinion: I think the Sigma 18-200 F3.5-6.3 II DC with this OS has done a great job of research. I thought that there were only those Canon (like quality ') instead of me I had to change his mind. I highly recommend everyone to provarlo.rnPS anke I was lucky having found the last sale in the window of a large retailer in a shopping center at a price speciale.rnQuesto I bought maybe is the latest version than the picture, because is imprinted II HSM.

Pros: Color reproduction, stabilization, sharpness above average and price

Cons: If I have to find fault, does not have the full time MF

Opinion: I purchased this light for a second kit lighter and practical, use this lens on a Canon 7D when I visit the city or travel where there are the possibilities of being able to make changes in that given its optical zoom range gives me the opportunity to seize several details. Things I have impressed are two, first stabilize very effective and precise, the second is the sharpness unthinkable for a lens in its class, the images appear more defined and the photos are not mixed in the background plus playback Color is really good even at 200mm (considered that I shot mostly in RAW) .rnIn truth I was very skeptical about the quality of these objectives handyman, but I must say that with the Sigma series Contemporary has made great strides, along with this perspective I also bought the USB Dock which gave me the opportunity to download the latest fimware available, also you can also make fine adjustments AF directly coNo program Sigma.rnIn nutshell if you want a view to travel or to stay still occasionally lighter recommend this Sigma that surely will give you file really beautiful !!!!

Pros: Generous in the light, stands out from the night nikon optical pesantina but very solid macro and a great all-rounder

Cons: Pesantino with 200 paintings becomes unwieldy call trippiede not weather sealed pipe assembly and only 18 to 200 people tend to photograph the shadow of the tube

Opinion: Bought used presents an excellent optical handyman macro as well when you're at the bottom with paintings try to create the dark corners but all in all an excellent yield for money in portraiture allows you to introfularti scenes without trouble to get too close to the subjects the great macro but must be careful to put it upside down because if you do not hold well in fact you end up way down the block who would be comfortable interacted over the entire focal length but too much to ask.
