I’ve been a commercial shooter for about 15 years, and have been a big fan of all the “new” era Sigma lenses. I own 3 other primes, but the reviews about the zooms had me cautious. I have shot the Canon 24-70 (both versions) as well as the 24-105 f/4. The Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 Art OS lens is remarkable. On my 5Ds it had incredibly accurate focus points, and I love how the contrast and color renditions give it a very different feel than the army of Canon lenses. (More neutral color, slightly more contrasts) Cons: it is heavy. Like, 85mm f/1.2 heavy. I definitely feel the difference in my shoulders and back after a day of shooting. The zoom ring is firm, which in the long term for the lens is probably better, but it takes some getting used to. The focus ring is thin, and it’s still taking me some hunting to find it while shooting. I’ve managed camera stores, run rental departments, and shot nearly every lens and body in the Canon lineup. This is a remarkbable lens that exceeds expectation, and is at least an equal to any other lens in this zoom range. I don’t get the negativity exhibited in so many of the reviews I had read. (Included the only image I have really shot that wasn’t for a client so far...)Read full review

I just got my Sigma art 24-70mm f/2.8 lens in a tested it out. I was very impressed with the quality of it.. basically brand new. I believe it was a factory refurbished model, but damn it's clean. Very nice build quality, pretty heavy, and produces a clean image. I'd have to say it's to be expected for this price range of lens. It's much better than the Rokinon lenses I have. Chromatic abortions around the highlights are looking way cleaner, I love having some zoom flexibility, and the constant aperture is perfect for my needs. I shoot a lot of video and usually resort to manual focus, but sometimes I take photos and need that autofocus to make the job easier (and to compete in the market). I am working with a Lumix gh5 with a metabones speedbooster, so the autofocus is not super quick or deadly accurate but it beats no auto focus at all. I'm confident I will be able to capture almost anything except sports or anything with quick movement. Pop this baby on a native EF body and it will most likely boost it's AF performance. Other than that, I'm happy with my purchase. OIS is hella smooth, the mount fit is snug, and the image is clean. Definitely a game changer. Read full review

If you want to compare this lens with one that is twice the price, go ahead. For the rest of us that needs to do the job and able to produce a quality product, this lens is for you. Very sharp and quick focus. Problem that is not really a problem is it's weight. Built like a rock and weights as much.

nothing better for the $$$'s, when compared to the glass of Canon lenses. Besides a few very small finicky details regarding the switch placements, which I will adapt to over time, my main beef would be the quality of the assessories that came with the purchase.

Excellent lens, crystal clear elements, very solid feeling! I love this lens! I've used Sigma lenses for over 10 years, and this is just another wonderful addition to my stable
