Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM Macro Lens for Canon SLR Camera

I was so excited to receive this lens, especially because it was on sale. I put the lens on my Canon 7D and I couldnt believe how loud the image stabilization was. It sounded like something was really wrong with the lens. I put another Sigma lens on my camera, to make sure I wasnt having camera problems, and it was very quiet. I repackaged the lens and sent it back. Ordered a Canon lens instead. I have several Sigma lenses and am very happy with them, but this one was too noisy.

I absolutely love this lens, great details on macro shots..after already owning the 2.8 70-200mm Ive grown a custom to Sigma noisy lenses, but with that being said, its all about the quality of the pictures..I gave much thought and research into my decision whether to buy this or the Canon 100mm ..Im happy with my decision and I have a few extra bucks in my pocket..Im very pleased with the portraits from it as well, it has pretty much replaced My 1.4 85mm on portraits as you can get the same shot and keep your distance from your subject....would I recommend it...Hell Yes!! Update 4-8-17 Ive experienced some serious auto focus issues with this lens It wont focus other than manual focus unless I have it set too the infinity range, it will be interesting to see how Sigma resolves this issue.. I own another sigma lens the 70-200 f/2.8 which Ive had no problems thus far... Knock on wood....my recommendation is save up for the Canon brand
