This Sigma Macro 50mm F2.8 EX DG is a standard macro lens that is ideal for shooting the "small world' around us that exists virtually unseen. A macro lens is one which will focus on a subject close enough to render it "life-size" on the image plane in your camera.

Well priced and sturdy enough lens; full-frame imaging circle
Image quality is not as good as some others
