Overall, I highly recommend the Sigma AF 180mm f/2.8 APO Macro lens for anyone looking for a high-quality macro lens. While it may be a bit cumbersome to carry, its excellent image quality and macro capabilities more than make up for it.

Optical design

With high brightness value, it has the ability to collect light even in poor lighting conditions Thanks to the macro capabilities this lens can make tiny things look big.

Physical characteristics

176 mm long, with this size carry only if you use it. With a lens filter diameter of 82 mm lens filters in this range can be expensive, purchase lens – and filter – only if you plan to keep them for long time, make a try with used ones. Weights 1650 grams so it is a heavy lens, consider using its own lens bag.
