SIGMA APO MACRO SUPER II 70-300mm F4-5.6 purchase

When 77 diameters Close for Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L USM Up Lens are searched, the lens of tele macrofacility loading, for new model sale being cheap, I found the fact that it is sold.

It is SIGMA APO of including tax price 63,000 Yen MACRO SUPER II 70-300mm F4-5.6, but with the postage and transfer commission included 18,500 Yen. You think that it is the category of cheap, as a price of the case and the hood attachment.

As for the new model lens Digital with APO 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro which corresponds, as for price it becomes a little high, including tax price has reached 65,100 Yen.

It meaning that also the lens evolves, when the ginger, you think of that it could photograph sufficiently even with the lens of 15 years ago, without the problem which you compare to the evolution of the digital camera itself it judged and had decided to purchase.

When the lens arrives, you thought with being that considerably it is the compact lens, it does, first impression, but when with 300mm it makes the macro limits, total length almost reaches time. When the hood is attached to this... (^_^)

Before going out from the Web catalog of the manufacturer, the specifications were picked up. However, almost there is no difference on APO 70-300mm of new model F4-5.6 DG Macro and the catalog specifications, the sea urchin I think.

300mm maximum photographing magnification ratio 1: The telephoto zoom lens where the cost performance whose macro photographing of 2 is possible is high. In all the photographic set-up where such as portrait the footwork with the outside is required, sport and the nature photo whose use frequency of the telephoto limits is high recommendation

With the adoption of the SLD glass chromatic aberration revision SLD (uniqueness dispersion) with the adoption of the glass satisfactorily low, chromatic aberration satisfactorily revision. The aberration fluctuation with focusing effective revision

Maximum photographing magnification ratio 1: Macro photographing of 2 with the change of the possible macro switch, at focal length 300mm photographing magnification ratio 1: Macro photographing of 2 is possible. From 200mm between 300mm 1: 2.9 Empty 1: The framing is possible in the range of macro photographing of 2 times. It can modify photographing magnification ratio without changing the distance of the camera and subject

Maximum magnification ratio At the time of 1:4.1 (macro 1:2)	Filter diameter 58mm	Maximum diameter x total length 76.6mm x 122mm	Weight 545 g	In addition Hood case attaching

With it has become.Immediately after purchasing Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L USM, it is, but because as for Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L, approach photographing is very difficult, this lens and proper use of SIGMA, are the delicate place. Simply, if I compared taking these 2 with, as for the turn of SIGMA APO MACRO SUPER II 70-300mm F4-5.6 it may decrease, is.

Because also 77 diameters Close for Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L USM Up Lense it reached, I took and compared and saw. In case of Canon EF 70-200mm F2.8L USM, identical shortest photographing distance way focal length extending the extender - by using, it meaning that macro photographing becomes substantially possible, perhaps there are also this choices.
