Next PZ lens test report: Sigma AF 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM (DX) - mst - 08-27-2013 Impressive. Both in terms of performance and size. http://www.opticallimits.com/nikon--nikkor-aps-c-lens-tests/836-sigmaex5015028dcos -- Markus Next PZ lens test report: Sigma AF 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM (DX) - Guest - 08-27-2013 Hard to imagine how you could make this lens much better; surprise it isn't a '5'. Btw I looked at a couple of your images and the focus was spot on (for example the otter eating a fish); i presume you auto focus but i'm still surprise at the accuracy of the focus.

Which also means that 4 stars is already a very high rating, especially for a zoom lens. Quote:Btw I looked at a couple of your images and the focus was spot on (for example the otter eating a fish); i presume you auto focus but i'm still surprise at the accuracy of the focus.I do use autofocus, and the AF of the D7000 works very well. However, with a fast moving subject like this one you also need luck, so I often shoot series of images with AF in continous mode. In the sample images, you will of course only see those images that turned out well (and not the many others I deleted). Oh, and that otter is a penguin, btw. -- Markus Next PZ lens test report: Sigma AF 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM (DX) - borisbg - 08-28-2013 Markus, thanks for the review. I wish Sigma did the same outstanding job on their 70-200mm lens.

The 60 mm, f/2.8 DN, on my newish NEX-3N is definitely one of the sharpest lenses I ever had. Love it!! Next PZ lens test report: Sigma AF 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM (DX) - Guest - 08-29-2013 You know. I thought that otter was a bit weird. Couldn't quite figure out how it ended up with a beak.

But given the history of that lens, it's due for an upgrade, I'd say I guess they'll release it as a new sports lens someday. Let's just hope they modify a little more than they did with the 120-300 OS... -- Markus Next PZ lens test report: Sigma AF 50-150mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM (DX) - JJ_SO - 08-29-2013 Quote:You know.
