Title: Wondering if actually an EX
Product review: I read the mixed reviews here on Amazon and figured why not try it. Alot of EX lenses produce great pictures. I took a few hundred pics and as said in other reviews the results were dissappointing. Some pictures turned out sharp and in focus however the majority of them were soft and unuable. I downloaded a calibration sheet and tested all of my lenses. All of my nikon lenses focus point were dead on, however the sigma always focused 3mm short leaving the focus point soft and unsharp. Yes you could crank up the f-stop to eliminate the softness, like a f/ 5.6 but whats the point. I have a cheap nikon D that will shoot @ that range easily and very well. The whole point of buying a f/ 2.8 is so you can shoot @ 2.8 in low lighting and when wanting a shallow depth of field.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
