Great lens. Not as fast as Nikon's but the price compensates for that.

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM Sports Lens for Canon EF - Brand New review
The Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM Sports lens is bigger and heavier than all of its main rivals, but we can forgive that because of the compelling mix of fantastic sharpness and image quality, great build quality, and outstanding feature set and performance.

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro HSM Review
It's expensive, but not as expensive as similar lenses from the first-party manufacturers. If you want speed, quality and versatility, the chunky Sigma 70-200mm lens is a belter.
Pros:
- Fast constant maximum aperture
- build quality
- AF/MF switching
Cons:
- A focus limiter would be nice
- no macro ratio scale
- no image stabilisation

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 APO EX DG OS Lens
Sigma has been producing fast tele zoom lenses for hand-held photography since the late 1980s and, although the new 70-200mm f/2.8 APO EX DG OS lens claims to be a second generation model, we estimate it's the sixth in a line that reaches back to the original AF 70-210mm f/2.8, which was designed...

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM APO
Pictures are sharp just in the midle at f2.8. (but usable) So. All pictures from http://3foto.ro/sedinta-foto-majorat/ were made at F5.6 with nikon D610 and from http://3foto.ro/sedinta-foto-seniors/ were made at f2.8 to 4.
Pros:
- Good for portraits
- Good OS
- Good colors
Cons:
- Sharp just in the midle at f2.8

This is my main glass for sports, since it was my first purchase for shooting HS Sports. I have used it with the Rebel and 40D. This lens is simply great for the price and is great for almost all sports. For the beginner, intermediate or casual shooter, you can not get a better lens for the price.
Pros:
- All you could want from a 70-200 2.8 - period
- Sturdy and strong
- Just solid
- Price
Cons:
- Focus can zoom in and way out when you are in autofocus
- Just boom -out of no where
- Compared to the Canon 2.8 equivalent (which I borrowed) It is a slight bit off
- You will have to work hard to get sharper images

Sigma's 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG MACRO HSM is solidly built and well designed, although the zoom ring could do with being about an inch further forward to make it truly comfortable to use.

The Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM is a bold attempt to challenge the quality and functionality of some of the very best lenses on offer today - the fast image-stabilized telezooms from Nikon and Canon.
Pros:
- Very sharp across the frame when stopped down
- Minimal color fringing/chromatic aberration of any description
- Fast
- silent
- accurate autofocus with manual override
- Very effective image stabilization
- Decent build quality
- Clever design tripod mount which is quick and easy to remove with the lens...
Cons:
- Somewhat soft and low in contrast at F2.8 towards the edges
- especially on full frame cameras
- Can give somewhat harsh rendition of out-of-focus backgrounds at longer focus distances
- No focus limiter switch
- No weathersealing
- Susceptible to flare with direct light sources in or close to the frame,...

Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM review
Sigma's first optically stabilised 70-200mm f/2.8 promises much. Gary Wolstenholme takes a look at whether it delivers.
Pros:
- Excellent centre sharpness at most focal lengths and apertures
- Very low CA levels
- Fast AF
- Optical Stabiliser
- Decent build quality
Cons:
- Lacklustre resolution performance at 70mm and f/2.8

Good quality/price
Produces great colours and the focus is pretty fast, however can be a little inaccurate or miss read the subject. at 2.8f the background blur is beautiful! I would definitely recommend this as a economical option to the Nikon version with cost double.
