Value For Money

The price of around £700 and specification of this lens is comparable to those of lenses produced by the main camera manufacturers.

The closest equivalent for Canon cameras is their popular 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens, which sports virtually identical specifications, but is currently around £100 less expensive.

Nikon camera owners looking at their 24-120mm f/4 VR lens may also consider this offering from Sigma. Although the Nikon lens offers slightly more telephoto reach, it is around £100 dearer than this Sigma optic.

Sony don't offer a standard zoom lens with a constant f/4 maximum aperture, or covering this focal length range currently, so this lens may be of particular interest to those who own a Sony Alpha SLR, or SLT camera.
