Sigma 120-400mm f.4-5.6 w/ OS Rules!
Sigma has been putting out after-market lenses in the past 15 to 20 years which meet or beat the OEM lenses for which I have "invested" in, until recently. I have the best of Nikon lenses, to a price point. I admit, I've spent upwards to $1,700 for a Nikon lens, and have photographed with great success with them. But, I'm blown away as to the quality of the Sigma lenses in the EX and ART series. This 120-400mm is no exception. I've taken it out, in unheard of night conditions, and it performed like a champ. It was clear, sharp, had great contrast in low light, and produced. My sample photo is too large to attach, so find the photo on Flickr using
photos/lavonnehing/50557016696/in/dateposted-public to see for yourself. Amazing! This is a 5 Photo panorama, composite, shot with this lens. My camera was a Nikon D810, yes fantastic in and of itself, but I know what the combo of great glass and my camera body can produce. Wow!Read full review...

Outstanding zoom lens
I shoot a lot of surfers. A good zoom is mandatory, and this one is very good. Excellent image quality with my Nikon D5000. The image stabilization is very good.
The lens is heavy, but can still be hand held. The stabilization helps with this and the tripod attachment makes for a good hand grip.
Very solidly built lens. Buy one. If you don't like it you should be able to easily sell it.Read full review...

Awesome lens! For Landscape, sports and almost any outdoor photography
I love landscape photography and approaching the object is sometimes hard. Love this lens its sharp, speed is not a problem using a tripod. I also bought the 2x Tele converter and opened a lot of new possibilities. Totally recommend both.Read full review...

Sigma 120-400 for Nikon
This was my first lens investment for my Nikon and will primarily be used for sports action so I can get close to the action. I've been extremely pleased as the function, focus speed and range has been everything I expected.Read full review...
Good value
This lens is a good value and offers great performance in focus, IQ (@ f/8) and color. Compared to a 70-300vr this is a monster fo only a 30% gain in zoom. It is worth the money but requires bright lightRead full review...
Easy to use
Use it with Nikon D300s. Very good lens. Works perfectly daytime, nighttime. Easy to handle. Sharp pictures.
It is heavy.
