Opinion:I bought this lens to get closer to "documentary" macro photography, rather than "artistic". The lens in question totally satisfied me from all points of view: excellent sharpness even at wider apertures, tropicalized, and with a good build quality and materials. The pleasant blur allows it to be used, despite the focal length of only 70mm, even for close-ups a little more ambient. The only flaw (although personally I didn't find it a big problem) is the external focus, equipped with a scale with magnification ratios. The weight, objectively, is not negligible; However, you can still use the lens handheld, despite the lack of stabilizer and the decidedly slow autofocus. Surely this lens gives its best when used on a tripod. The price is in line with the other brands.
Opinion:It's probably one of those goals that you either hate or love. I had a lot of lenses and this is undoubtedly the one that most of all made me shout WOW for the sharpness, it leaves you really amazed. Incomparable to the already excellent Canon EF 100 Macro L. I believe that it borders on perfection from many points of view, optically it is a monster! Too bad that the combination of the lack of stabilizer and the slowness of the autofocus makes it almost unusable freehand, despite the lightness and stabilization of the sensor (tested on R5). My specimen then often triggered a boring "focus hunting", despite the correct use of the autofocus limiter. I recommend it to those who do macros only with a tripod and look for sharpness at any cost. For the vote I do not express myself, it would deserve a ten for the photos that it is able to churn out and 5 for what makes you sweat ...

Opinion:Taken new at an acceptable price used on eos R system immediately gave me rande satisfaction, so much so that I immediately sell the 100 Canon L is EF version of course. Compared to f 2.8 the sigma is a span on it and the details are surprisingly sharper. The only thing it suffers from is not being is but the ibis system of the R5 and R6 solve this let's call it a defect. Happily satisfied with the replacement also because the focal length 70 also lends itself in portraiture in a different way to the focal length 100, taking into account that I have the 105 art
Pros:Exceptional sharpness, delicious blurry, button to differentiate the MAF, tropicalized.
Cons:Autofocus a bit slow
Opinion:I just got it, but I've already fallen in love with it. The sharpness is great and the blurry is very, very nice. Very useful keys to differentiate the MAF. It is not very light, but it is held very well and by a sense of robustness and is tropicalized. Autofocus is sometimes slow, but I think in a macro it is quite common and in any case in the most pushed photos you use manual MAF. Once again good Sigma, vote 10
