The Sigma EX 17-50mm f/2.8 DC OS HSM lens for Canon offers excellent zoom range of 17-50 mm focal lengths, taking both portrait and landscape photos in a variety of settings. Operate the camera in 17mm and f/2.8 mode to take stunning wide-angle pictures. You can use the f/2.8 aperture at any zoom level, letting you focus in on faraway objects or on small objects at close range. Increase the focal length to 50mm to use it as a zoom lens for crisp macro photos. Adjust the length as you take pictures to search for your ideal shot. Make use of the lens hood included with the device to add an additional 1.5 inches to the focal length. Close up the aperture to f/4 or smaller to take amazing landscape photographs. Its Super Multi-Layer coating helps keep flare at bay, especially at the f/2.8 aperture setting. You can boost the range of these versatile Sigma EX 17-50mm f/2.8 DC OS HSM lenses with a number of filter types. This product is compatible with any standard 77mm filter. Control the focus in a studio or outdoor setting by adjusting the aperture. An f/2 setting lets more light into the camera in a shorter period of time, which helps focus in on the subject. A larger aperture setting involves a larger amount of light to maintain sharpness but can offer sharper portrait backgrounds. Control light in your studio with the built-in flash on your camera. Whether you like to take wide-angle photos at 17mm and f/2 setting or you prefer to use a 50mm length to zoom in on wildlife in outdoor scenes, the Sigma EX 17-50mm f/2.8 DC OS HSM lenses can be excellent all-around lenses to add to your equipment set.

    Great price, great quality.

    This lens has some vignetting problems when shot wide open, but it's not too noticibke, and easy to correct. Images also suffer from slight chromatic aberration and softening in the edges when shot at f2.8 but also not super noticible. Stop down to f4 and this lens is much sharper. I would highly recommend this lens to any aps-c users, especially if all you've ever used is the kit lens, this has that same range and much much better quality. The Canon and Nikon equivalents are way more expensive and not significantly better in image quality.

  • Top critical review

    Really stunning hardware, but I had to return it

    So, if you are looking for incredible quality and great low light performance for photos in a zoom lens....you found your product. BUT, if you are looking for those same qualities to shoot video, even with an external mic (yes I tried this) not so much. The auto focus is loud, not deafening loud, but it becomes very prominent when recording video. I don't use the in camera recording so I thought my Rode Mic would eliminate the sound...it doesn't. If you are using a Lav or a boom, you will be fine, but if you are mounting the mic or using in camera (which nobody should), forget it. The auto focus is too loud to be usable.

  • One of the best and sharpest lenses.

    This lens is equal in sharpness to my two 30mm and 50mm f1.4 prime lenses. At f2.8 the sharpness matches both primes stopped down to f2.8. Honestly it’s an amazing lens and the autofocus is great through the viewfinder and Live View (DPAF) on my 80D. And Servo AF works fine as well since some were saying they had problems. I think if your camera has DPAF, you’ll find that this lens is amazing on live view for photos and videos even with continuous auto focus. Must buy! Only issue i have is the focus ring moving with the AF but that’s an issue literally everyone else has. Also, the lens has pretty strong focus breathing, fortunately though, when at the wide end, it breathes down to about 15mm at the closest focusing distance so you still get the full 17mm focal length when zoomed to infinity, so you aren’t losing any focal range, you’re indeed gaining a few mm if focusing closer than infinity at the wide end of the zoom.

  • Best Lens...EVER!!

    I truly mean this is the best lens ever. If there is one lens that will be the most helpful to you wherever you go, this is it. I do a lot of photography at conventions shooting cosplayers so I have to work fast lots of times. It's good to have the wide aperture to get the professional looking shots you need throughout the entire zoom range. The auto focus is whisper-quiet. It feels very solid in your hand; very well built. It's a great upgrade to the standard "Kit" lens.

  • Good Lens

    I like the lens. It took a minute to get is focused on my canon 80d. It has produced some great pictures and works just as well if not better than the overpriced canon 17-55. I have used both and the pictures might even be better with the Sigma. I fell that canon is over pricing their products and you can by another brand most times at half the price that works just a well. I am very pleased with my purchase, and would recommend it to a friend.

  • So happy I got this over the more expensive Canon

    I was debating to get the Canon 17-55 IS EFS but after reading the reviews saying that this was sharper from sources I trusted, I decided to get this one specially it was less money. I love Canon gear but for the price/value, this is a better buy and you can use that extra money you saved to buy extra memory card, etc. It's very sharp wide open at 2.8 and built solid. Lens hood could be made better because it doesn't fit tight enough and it's pretty loose. The image quality and price is really the most important to me. Focusing is accurate and fast.

  • Early Impressions

    It came fast & it was an easy transaction and has to be the cheapest best value upgrade to the kit lens for the Canon Rebel. I researched it pretty good & read a lot of great revues on this product & so far it seems to hit all the high points nicely. Very Sharp, feels well made, pictures are a big improvement & indoor shooting is much improved with the 2.8fs. Would have liked the Canon 17-55, but could not justify the extra $200...this is a great lens.

  • HUGE value, a must-have lens that you'll never take off your camera

    I'm a quickly-learning, very-interested amateur photographer. I shoot in low-light indoor conditions a lot, and I'm taking tons of pictures of my kids. Before I got this lens, I had a Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 but that wasn't nearly fast enough. I picked up a cheap Canon 50mm f/1.8 and it was fantastic as a fast lens for my situation. The only problem was that it didn't zoom, and it didn't allow me to take wider angle shots. There were SO many shots I just simply didn't get--group shots, whole-room shots, etc. The 50mm focal length is great for individual portraits of a single kid playing in the living room, but it's extremely limiting when there's more going on in the room that you want to capture. I had my eye on the Canon 18-55mm f/2.8, but that runs you around $700. I couldn't bring myself to put down the money. Enter the Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 that you're now looking at. The price point, even brand new from other sites, is around $300. It seemed like a deal that was too good to be true. The lens really does live up to every expectation, though. Sigma creates lenses that are durable with a very solid, high-quality look and feel. The photos are very clear and beautiful. And most important, the lens is both FAST and VERSATILE enough for my needs. I anticipate that I'll probably never swap this lens out in favor of either of my old lenses. If you're an amateur photographer like me, I highly recommend this lens. It will be a significant upgrade to your collection! For a more comprehensive review, check out The Digital Picture.

  • Great Budget Lens with High End Lens Features

    The lens gives you a decent bokeh (background blur) when doing portrait. It also gives you a great image under indoor or low light situations, varies according to what kind of camera you use. Keep in mind this lens for cropped sensor APS-C cameras only, not for full-framed cameras. Great Budget Lens with F2.8 Aperture.
