Customer Reviews:

Great wide angle.......2007-09-23

Great wide-angle lens for the money. Little fall-off in corners, especially at f8 and above. I would recommend this lens to anyone who cannot afford to buy the Nikon lenses. The only complaint (?) is that the zoom ring takes a bit of effort to turn. The focus is fast and accurate, and pictures are crisp.

I love this lens.......2005-05-18

This lens is very sharp especially at 15mm f8-16 which is the aperture we use for landscape. It can be used on 35mm film and it will be really really wide at 15mm. It can also be used with digital camera. I used with D70 and love it. It is much sharper than sigma 12-24 if you check the mtf chart at sigma web site.
It is my favorite lens.

Product Description

Sigma provides the new ultra-wide angle zoom lens from 15mm and this lens is the first of its kind in the world. It can be useful for images of landscapes, large buildings, group photographs or even more. The perspective that changes with the angle-of-view gives picture an extraordinary feeling. Delicate compositions can be adjusted by lens zooming and this is helpful for close-up photography. Provides deep depth of field with its short focal length for amazing photographic expressions. This is an ultra-wide zoom lens that covers a large wide-angle range from 15 mm to 30 mm. With a minimum focusing distance of 30 cm (11.8 inches) throughout the entire zoom range, it is an ideal lens for Digital SLR Cameras.It incorporates hybrid aspherical lens in the front lens group to minimize distortion and astigmatism, and molded glass aspherical lens in the rear lens group to minimize spherical aberration. Minimization of the distortion is a most important issue for zoom lens, but Sigma has succeeded, to provide image quality with minimal distortion by employing aspherical lenses.This lens incorporates an internal focusing system, which eliminates front lens rotation. Since focusing do not change its overall length, this lens is easy to hold and use. Also it is allowing the use of a Petal-type Hood. The lens also incorporates Dual-Focus (DF) mechanism. It is easy to hold the lens, since the focusing ring does not rotate during auto-focus, yet it provides adequate focusing torque of the focusing ring during manual focusing of the lens.

Product Description

Kit includes: 1) Sigma 15-30mm EX DG IF Aspherical Ultrawide Autofocus Zoom Lens; 2) CapKeeper; 3) Deluxe 6-Piece Cleaning Kit. &diams; Sigma 15-30mm Lens includes: Front & Rear Lens Caps; Lens Hood; Soft Case; Instructions; Sigma USA Warranty. &diams; The Sigma 15-30mm is a state-of-the-art ultrawide zoom lens that has an Internal Focus system for faster autofocusing. This design feature keeps the lens length constant and results in a non-rotating front element. This provides more balanced lens handling and makes using circular polarizing filters far more convenient. It incorporates hybrid aspherical lens elements to minimize distortion, astigmatism, and spherical aberration. With an impressive minimum focus distance of only 11.8 inches — at all focal lengths — you are able to place subjects in the foreground to give a sense of depth to your scenic shots for truly creative and well-composed photographs. In their lens tests, PopPhoto.com concluded the Sigma 15-30mm to be "a remarkably sharp, relatively distortion-free lens that's remarkably useful for both digital and film-based SLRs." &diams; Digital SLRs such as the Nikon D40, D80, D200 and D300 have a 1.5x Lens Factor and the Canon Digital Rebel XTi or EOS 30D and 40D have a 1.6x Lens Factor which makes getting truly expansive wide angle photos with 28-80mm or even 18-55mm lenses problematic. That is why the Sigma 15-30mm is such a wonderful lens to own. On 35mm Film Cameras and Full Frame sensor Digital SLRs, you get the listed focal length range without any sensor cropping. When used on cameras with a 1.5x lens factor you get a wonderfully ultrawide 22.5mm to 45mm effective focal length zoom lens that's just what you need for breathtaking scenic landscapes or impressive cityscapes; large group reunions and family get-together photos; real estate photographs requiring interior and exterior views of residential houses or large commercial buildings; as well as distinctive vacation and travel photos.
