Sigma 135-400mm f/4.5-5.6 APO Aspherical RF AF Review Round-Up

 

The Sigma AF 135-400mm f/4.5-5.6 APO Aspherical RF is not a perfect lens nor can you expect that a budget lens reaches high end quality levels. Nonetheless it is capable to provide very decent results especially in the 135-300mm range. At 400mm @ f/5.6...

Sigma 135-400mm f/4.5-5.6 Aspherical APO review by Nikola_Konsulov

 

I wanted a zoom lens with a good range. I came across this Sigma and I thought "why not." I checked out any official reviews I could find on the web (not many). It seemed that the lens was well regarded. I think it is.

Great zoom range, good aperture range (f4.5-5.6), can produce sharp images, can have realitively fast auto focus

Zoom creep, tends to hunt in low light

I had this lens for only about a week (bought used and returned it) as mine had a bad back focusing issue (so check for that!), but also the zoom ring is VERY stiff and couldn't use it on the field easily with just 1 hand while holding on a monopod...

cheap, reach

very stiff zoom ring, 135 not very wide

Sigma 135-400mm f/4.5-5.6 Aspherical APO review by sidd

 

Sigma 135-400mm f/4.5-5.6 DG APO – This lens had the potential to be a winner. The zoom range is just under 3X which means the compromises in lens design are to the minimum. I had the non DG version of this lens. Unfortunately the optics are not great;...

Cheap, good focal range, recommended only if you're on a budget

Focus speed and huntinf, zoom creep
