Video reviews

The zoom lens from Sigma is available in versions for all major mounts — it is compatible with Nikon, Canon, Sony, Pentax and Sigma SLR cameras.

sharpness

In full-frame equivalent, the focal length range of the lens is 15-30 mm (with a crop factor of 1.5x). Such distances are optimal for landscape and architectural photography, as well as for shooting indoors. Regardless of the zoom position, the maximum aperture of the lens remains constant — its value is equal to f / 3.5. But on the market there is an almost complete analogue of the model with variable aperture, which is the Sigma AF 10-20mm f / 4.0-5.6 EX DC HSM zoom.

good sharpness

According to the authoritative resource photozone.de, the zoom lens receives a "Very Good" mark for sharpness in the centre and edges at all aperture and zoom settings. Insignificant "blurring" can occur only at the very edge of the frame when shooting with the aperture at the short end (10-12 mm) as open as possible. In the same case, vignetting and chromatic aberration become visible in the picture. Well, where without distortions at the widest angle, which can be corrected in the editor by selecting the profile of the corresponding lens.

Rich equipment

The model has been on the market for more than a year in a row and during this time it has managed to win a lot of positive reviews. In addition to good shooting results, the owners of the lens write flattering reviews about the quality of its assembly and about the rich package, which includes a lens hood and a storage case. A small bitter residue is left only by the large diameter of the front lens, which is why it is necessary to look for expensive filters with a diameter of 82 mm to pair with the model.

Non-standard look

The optimal price-performance ratio of the Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM makes the lens a top candidate for wide-angle cropped DSLRs. With its help, it seems possible to bring to life the most daring experiments in obtaining non-standard views on familiar things.
