Sigma 28 f 1.8, made for film.

[mortenmb]

Hi everyone! this is my first post here
have been watching this forum for a while, a lot of usefull debate!!

now to the important part

Im going to buy 2 used sigma lenses:
1 sigma 28mm f 1.8
2 sigma 21-35 f 3.5-4.2

Price; 90$, for both.

Both are back from the film days, about, hmm, 10 years old, i think.

Now i wonder, does any of you know any of the lenses?

I would realy appreciate some feedback on the two , what you think of them and so on.

BTW, im going to use them on my A200

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the fast answer Sonolta

Great with the link, people seem to think it's a okay lens, the 21-35

Yeah i saw it still was in production, so i cant wait to try it on my A200, and learn the difference hoping it has nice bokeh!

hmm, i hope that it does not need to be rechipped! i dont even think thats possible in my country (Denmark) :/


Do you have a guide for checking front/back fokus issues?
how about just trying to focus on my hand, and then check if the focus hits?

Hi Morten and welcome to the forum.
I really hope they will not need any re-chipping and do hope you'll inform us of the results and post some shots with them.

for that price... just make sure they are AF lenses!

Shoot, I'm with Pako! That looks like a steal and if you don't get them, tell me where I can! Welcome to the forum mortenmb!

Hi again, thanks for the answers

Sonolta: thanks, i will try to test them as good as possible when they arrrive (and naturally not try to check it on the camera, but on my computer )

Dr. Harout:

Pakadominguez:
no need to worry, they are!

Kevin:
im going to get them, so, sorry

and thanks for the welcome everyone!

I sure find it hard to wait right now!

plus, if anyone have tried any of the lenses, im still curious, so speak out
