Where have I been?? Using the IPOD Classic seemed great, until I got the touch! I almost bought a new computer instead, but this can do almost everything a computer can! I love it and have had absolutely no problems!

Sigma 250mm 18 f chance

Actually my review is somewhat similar to the previous review by W. Cooper. I, like him, didn’t find much resources about this lens, but was confused between the Tamron & the Nikon long range lenses, I was about to go with the Nikon 18-200mm because I felt that the Tamron 18-270mm lens didn’t really get good reviews and I didn’t like the fact that it was slow in focusing. And boy am I glad that I waited for this one. I think I gambled (being an early adopter) and it worked.

Its really a great all around lens which is exactly what I was looking for (I hate changing lenses). The best thing about it is that its really pretty fast in focusing at 250mm, maybe even faster than my D90 kit lens the Nikon 18-105mm. It really is a HSM equipped lens, I saw a few threads in forums about ppl debating this fact, so rest assured it has a motor. The OS is working as it should at maximum zoom as well so no issues here. I have been using it for a couple of days only to be fair, but I’m very excited about it and about the quality of the images I have took so far. I’m taking it out for a full test in the next few days, if I feel that things weren’t perfect I will update this review. I didn’t notice a lens creep (yet!), but in any case there is a lock switch on the lens, this switch will only work when the lens is at 18mm. I noticed that when you are trying to shoot close-ups at 250mm, the lens wont focus properly if you are too close to the subject, manual focus will still work though and you can take a clear sharp picture. The make and the body of the lens feels nice and durable as well, it doesn’t feel cheap at all.

In the end I have to say that this baby will beat the Tamron 18-270mm lens hands down, and surely the Nikon 18-200 if you want a bigger zoom. And the price is surely worth it and acceptable.

Update: I think I was wrong about close-up focus, it still focus pretty well and fast at close range while at maximum zoom.

Update 2: I have uploaded some pics in Picasa
