18-300mm F3.5-6.3 DC MACRO OS HSM | C

Switch less, shoot more

The Sigma 18-300mm 3.5-6.3 DC HSM OS Macro is another impressive addition to the Sigma Global Vision Contemporary line. With a 16.6x zoom ratio covering focal lengths from wide to telephoto, this lens also offers a 1:3 macro ratio. The Sigma 18-300mm Contemporary was designed for APS-C cameras where it equates to a 27-450mm lens and incorporates state-of-the-art Sigma technology. An enhanced optical stabilizer (OS) compensates for camera shake, while an optimized hyper sonic motor (HSM) ensures quiet and fast autofocus. Four FLD (performance equal to fluorite) paired with 1 SLD glass elements capture incredible sharp and contrasted images, all the way through the focal length. Utilizing top quality glass, the Sigma 18-300mm Contemporary controls aberration, even at the telephoto end to produce high quality images. Working with the USB dock, this lens allows for firmware updates when available and adjustment of focus parameters.

USB Dock Compatibility

Sigma has developed special software (SIGMA Optimization Pro) that can update the lens firmware and adjust parameters such as focus.

"...AF is fast and quiet, though focus ring is tiny so is not handy if you like mastering focus on your own...." Read more

Great lens for the money

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2019

Style: Canon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I'm a photojournalist at a very small newspaper. I wanted a lens that could be used in most situations without having to go to the camera bag to switch between close-ups and sports action needs -- not to mention tourism use. This is a great lens for the money on my 60D once everything was all on the same page. Out of the box it did not like the 60D's multi-focus points so I switched to the center point and that helped. AF struggles at 300mm and the OS juttered a lot a first. It felt like the lens had to get a read on the camera, or the other way around. I'm not technically skilled enough to know the difference.
I bought the dock to do a firmware update which greatly improved performance and smoothed some rough edges including the OS. That said, we suggest you encourage your Sigma dealer to do this for you as a term of sale. This lens does not have customization setting features so the only other thing you can do with the dock is tinker with focus range settings at different zoom points. We have not had the lens long enough to mess with the factory settings. It takes great pictures and gives me the versatility I'm looking for. We'll see in the long run. It's heavier than the average lens and feels extremely well built. Some have complained the zoom is stiff but I find this comforting as a sign of tight tolerances.
Two things that annoyed me: The lens cap is not secure if you have a UV filter attached and is constantly falling off as I walk about; and the lens hood is not very secure and it also easily falls off. Added some small dabs of super glue to the hood in strategic friction points (and let it dry thoroughly) and this seems to have helped secure it. Do NOT put glue on the lens. The hood is easily replaced. I'll be looking for a different lens cap because this one will probably be lost soon enough.

My first impressions were very good. The lens seemed sharp throughout its range

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2017

Style: Canon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I got this lens only a few hours ago, and immediately put it to the test. My first impressions were very good. The lens seemed sharp throughout its range. I compared shots with it and with two highly-regarded zooms I already own: the Canon EFS 15-85 and the Canon EF 70-300L. Of course the two Canon zooms were sharper, but not by much. I found the Sigma results quite acceptable. Curiously, unlike many other superzooms, the lens gets sharper at its longer focal lengths.

I wasn't expecting much anyway, but the extreme close-ups I tried were not very sharp. But I might try again.

An added bonus for Canon users, the zoom ring rotates in the same direction as does Canon zooms.

I will probably retire the two Canon lenses, saving my 72-year-old back quite a bit of stress.

I have only two complaints, neither of which is worth deducting a star.
1) The zoom ring is a bit stiff, but will probably loosen with use.
2) The lens does not allow full-time manual focus.

Much of my decision making was based on test results that I found on "the-digital-picture/reviews" website.

Edited a week later - I have taken several hundred photos and am very satisfied with the results.

Edited a month later - I took it on a cruise and took many photos on and off the ship. The lens performed well, and its wide range mostly eliminated the need to switch lenses. For most shots center sharpness was good with perhaps a loss of sharpness in the corners.

Edited another month later - I took it to Hawaii, where it produced good results again. Its extended range allowed me to carry only the camera and lens for many outings, rather than a camera bag with two lenses.

Great compact lens

Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2023

Style: Nikon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

I initially bought this lens in 2017 for an African safari. It takes great telephoto pictures without carrying around a bulky telephoto lens. I am not a photographer, and this was perfect for me. On a trip to Alaska in 2023, the autofocus stopped functioning. I’m not even sure what happened, but I believe it either got wet or dirty. While I would have preferred for it to have lasted longer than 6 years, it had a good run, and I bought the same lens again for future travels.

It's a great lens!

Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2014

Style: Nikon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

Being it's still so difficult to find reviews of this lens, and it's now the holiday season, here's a limited pic first impression mounted on a Nikon D5100. When compared to the latest Sigma 18-250mm Macro lens this lens feels of better build quality, noticeably heavier up front, stiffer zooming (not a bad thing), noticeably sharper images...seemingly across the full zoom, feels about the same focusing speed across all lighting/zoom...possibly a tad faster, stabilization seems about the same...possibly a tad better, BUT...WOW THIS LENS BREATHS LIKE A DRANGON. You can actually feel the air being forced through the camera. Some have commented about the Nikon 55-300mm lens being a dust sucker, I don't find that lens too terrible, but I'm pretty sure this lens will have that one beat hands down...unfortunately. My particular lens does have a noticeable "click" when ending its focus hunt, possibly a parking mechanism for gears?, and its focus is dead on right out of the box. Barrel distortion isn't too bad, chromatic aberration doesn't appear to be either, but with the built-in flash I've gotten a few shots with a half moon on the bottom from the lens blocking the flash. At this point I'd have to call this lens a buy, bearing in mind it might not be the best choice for a dusty environment. If you're after a versatile family lens this lens can catch my 18 month old grandson indoors, in low lighting, clearly...and he never stops moving, not even in his sleep. Deer out in the field, snowscapes, birds at the feeder, Jack-frost paintings, snowflakes,...hopefully its longevity matches its versatility.

Exzellentes All-In-One-Objektiv für Canon-Kameras

Reviewed in Germany on June 15, 2023

Style: Canon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

Pro:

Das Sigma 18-300mm F3,5-6,3 DC Macro OS HSM Contemporary Objektiv ist ein echter Alleskönner. Mit einem großen Zoombereich von 18-300mm deckt es eine Vielzahl von Aufnahmesituationen ab, von Weitwinkelaufnahmen bis hin zu Telefotografie. Es ist perfekt für Reisen, den Alltag, Makrofotografie, Natur- und Landschaftsaufnahmen sowie für Porträts und Veranstaltungen geeignet.
Die Bildqualität des Objektivs ist exzellent. Die Verwendung von vier FLD-Glaselementen und einem SLD-Glaselement minimiert chromatische Aberrationen und liefert klare Bilder mit hoher Farbtreue. Die Super-Multi-Layer-Vergütung reduziert Reflexionen und Geisterbilder, was zu scharfen und kontrastreichen Aufnahmen führt.
Das Objektiv verfügt über einen optischen Stabilisator (OS), der für Canon-, Nikon- und Sigma-Anschlüsse funktioniert. Dies ermöglicht verwacklungsfreie Aufnahmen, selbst bei längeren Belichtungszeiten oder aus der Hand.
Der Autofokus des Objektivs ist schnell und leise dank des leistungsstarken Hyper Sonic Motors (HSM). Dadurch können Sie schnell auf sich bewegende Motive fokussieren und verpassen keinen Moment.
Das Objektiv ist gut gebaut und verfügt über ein robustes Messingbajonett. Es ist langlebig und für den langfristigen Einsatz konzipiert. Die Innenfokussierung sorgt dafür, dass die Baulänge des Objektivs während der Scharfstellung konstant bleibt.

Contra:

Das Objektiv ist aufgrund seines großen Zoombereichs etwas schwerer und größer als einige andere Objektive. Es kann etwas Platz in Ihrer Kameratasche einnehmen.
Obwohl das Objektiv eine beeindruckende Makrofunktion bietet, kann ein dediziertes Makroobjektiv noch detailliertere Makroaufnahmen liefern.

Fazit:

Das Sigma 18-300mm F3,5-6,3 DC Macro OS HSM Contemporary Objektiv ist ein hervorragendes All-In-One-Objektiv für Canon-Kameras. Es bietet einen großen Zoombereich, exzellente Bildqualität, optische Stabilisierung und schnellen Autofokus. Obwohl es etwas größer und schwerer ist, ist seine Vielseitigkeit und Leistungsfähigkeit beeindruckend. Es ist eine großartige Option für Fotografen, die ein Objektiv suchen, das verschiedene Aufnahmesituationen abdeckt, ohne ständig Objektive wechseln zu müssen.

Reviewed in Mexico on November 7, 2020

Style: Canon SLR MountSet: Lens OnlyVerified Purchase

El lente tiene buena calidad, su óptica es buena, es muy ligero y práctico, sin embargo no es un 300mm, anexo dos Fotos la primera con el Sigma a 300mm y la segunda en 200mm con un Canon 70-200 mm y podrán apreciar que las fotos son prácticamente idénticas, por lo que el máximo zoom del Sigma equivale a 200 mm de un Canon. Lo conservaré pues me justo que es muy ligero y usándolo conjuntamente con un extender 2X funciona como un 36-400mm lo cual sigue siendo muy práctico (aunque pierdo 2 stops)
