Pros: Part from 15mm

Cons: Dimensions and weight

Opinion: If you want to spend little on used and have a respectable wide angle then this is the right lens. Excellent build quality, effective af even if a bit noisy, smooth rings, integrated metal hood. Mounted adapted on eos rp is fine especially since I have an adapter with drop-in filters and also adapted on micro 4/3 behaves well. All the flare they talk about I don't see. A bit 'yes, but nothing very serious for such a lens. Recommended for those who do not want to faint, but still have a wide angle pushed. Ah, it doesn't particularly distort.

Pros: Very low distortion,sharpness,very well-groomed construction,price.

Cons: A Po of flare

Opinion: I have this optic stoch in a few years combined with Nikon d800 I am very satisfied with the images that produces great sharpness, the angles drop a little but I think even optics of other brands have a slight drop For the flare that so much is talked about I think is sometimes there but nu lla of dramatic Conclusions excellent lens considering also the price that is located on the used

Pros: build quality, price, FF, low distortion.

Cons: flare, flare ... oh I forgot, this objective is suffering from serious problems of flare.

Opinion: found used (of course) in a photo shop. I like aesthetically, balanced forms and the usual Sigma satin paint. the structural design is really well made, solid and well assemblato.rnla sharpness is good at TA, decaying at the edges, and excellent, closing a pair of stop, throughout the frame. the distortion is present on full frame but easily correctable PP and almost totally absent on aps-c-. the autofocus is extremely noisy but, after all, for a perspective which primarily is used for landscapes is also important because, in most cases you focheggia to mano.rnil big this light problem is the very low resistance to flare. in the event of a frontal or side light will most likely present reflections on the image and halos. but at that price tant'è.rnsecondo me a viable alternative to wide-angle lens, perhaps the most modern and best-resistant backlit but certainly far more expensive.

Pros: Construction, price distortion

Cons: Sharpness flare

Opinion: is a bell'obiettivo, with just under 300 euro to take home a 15mm zoom with autofocus built in metal. is the first superwide zoom is therefore a project old and this is seen in the performance that can not be compared with the current 11 00:16 35 canon. In any case we will make the most beautiful photos and f3.5 at night is not a good alternative to male.rné Samyang 14 f2.8 costs the same but is zoom, is built better and has autofocus, but pay at maximum aperture and a little sharpness

Pros: Solid and well made, silent AF and relatively rapid, wide-angle relationship quality / price excellent

Cons: built-in hood (metal), very protruding front lens makes colors a little cold.

Opinion: I bought this lens after trying with little satisfaction the Sigma 17-35 f2 0.8 to 4 HSM.rnLa realization is definitely good and solid, barrel alternating metal parts in good quality plastic coating and a silk-effect typical of Sigma . rnNon heavy, has some short hikes in and focusing a zoom. A whisper-quiet AF motor, precise and quick, hardly avvverte. I think, for the price paid (€ 230 condition like new) a great lens with an excellent quality / price ratio, definitely unique and validia alternative to expensive Nikon 14-24 at home (but also home to Canon). rnNon I encountered particular problems of flare but only slight chromatic aberazioni risoltesi PP. rnDistorsioni visible on the sides to 15mm, but this is the pleasure of a super-wide. Absent annoying vignetting and sharpness is excellent between the f8 and f16.rnIl Integrated lens hood, metal, makes it difficult to use filters, if not on the media / 82mm lid, the hood becomes a great impact protection to the lens frontparticularly prominent. rnHo noticed a color rendering prone to cold. rnPer who want to get closer to the type of lens is an excellent solution to human prices.
